Package dependencies: Codeblocks

Question

So I downloaded the Codeblocks IDE in tar.xz format. I am fairly new to Linux and downloaded this format so I can install packages myself. I have extracted the archive to a folder and they are all .deb files. When I try to install, it complains of dependencies.

So what the heck am I to do now? Please I'll appreciate a terminal approach.

did you try sudo apt-get -f install This command solve dependency issues. — Raphael, Sep 17 '15 at 06:12
I already downloaded the package from source forge.com on another device. — deXtro, Sep 17 '15 at 06:39

You can install Codeblocks from Ubuntu repository. This will make your life easier by installing all the dependencies. So open a terminal and type:

sudo apt-get install -y Codeblocks

You may have to enable universe repository to install this. Read How do I enable the "Universe" repository?
