Dear Sylvestre,
Let me be quite explicit about what is happening here within my Debian
sid(uction) KDE desktop machine.
When, always as root of course, I issue the command:
apt install libclang-dev
I get the output:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libclang-dev : Depends: libclang-9-dev (>= 9~) but it is not going to be
installed
Then, when I try:
apt install libclang-9-dev
I get:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libclang-9-dev : Depends: libstdc++-8-dev but it is not going to be
installed
Depends: libgcc-8-dev but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libobjc-8-dev but it is not going to be installed

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libstdc++-8-dev : Depends: libgcc-8-dev (= 8.4.0-2) but it is not going to
be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Finally, when I try:
apt install libgcc-8-dev
I get:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libgcc-8-dev : Depends: libgcc-s1 (>= 1:8.4.0-2) but 10-20200324-1 is to
be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Isn't this a bug with these packages somehow?
Thanks
