解决：Unable to correct problems,The following packages have unmet dep

 Depends: ros-kinetic-simulators but it is not going to be installed

 

之前一直正常的apt，突然就不好用了。一种原因是已经安装的包的版本和当前要安装的包出现了版本冲突。这样的情况下，只要卸载之后再重新安装就好了。

卸载可以用

$apt-get autoremove 

$apt-get purge your_pacakename

$ sudo aptitude install libgazebo7-dev
aptitude在PC机的ubuntu上可以正常使用。

如果是在tx2或者xavier上就不要使用aptitude了；之前亲测，在xavier上用aptitude,结果调入万丈深渊，apt都挂掉了。

卸载了冲突包之后，在按正常流程安装所需要的包就好了。

解决方法

给需要的源打钩，不需要的源不打钩。

关闭后$sudo apt-get update搞定。
