> When you say "I tried to reproduce this issue on Ubuntu 16.04" you
probably mean "Ubuntu 16.04.3"
It's a 16.04 system with all updates installed, so effectively yes. :)
>But if you tried on Ubuntu 16.04.2 you would have faced the same
problem.
They install packages from the same archive. The problem may have been
that the system hadn't checked for updates in a while. In which case,
the local package list would say that libsndfile1-dev 1.0.25-10 is the
latest available version and attempt to install that. This might then
cause conflicts with other, already installed packages. By updating the
package list, the local package list would find version
1.0.25-10ubuntu0.16.04.1 which shouldn't cause any conflicts. (This
might sometimes happen if package mirrors are temporarily out of sync,
usually these issues are resolved by waiting a while and then running
`sudo apt update` to get the latest list of packages)
Great to hear things are working again, closing this issue as requested.
