Ubuntu 24.04 install of Cube IDE 1.15.1

When moving to the latest LTS version of Ubuntu (version 24.04), I received the following message when attempting to install Cube IDE and after accepting all of the license agreements:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
st-stm32cubeide-1.15.1 : Depends: libncurses5 but it is not installable
Depends: libpython2.7 but it is not installable
Depends: libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

 

After running "sudo apt-cache search" for each of these packages, I found the following:

for libncurses5 only libncurses-dev was returned. The version associated with 24.04 is (6.4+20240113-1ubuntu2)

for libpython2.7 nothing was returned and when I searched for just libpython only libpython3-all-dev and its associated packages were listed.

for libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 nothing was returned but when searching for libwebkit2gtk version libwebkit2gtk-4.1 was returned.

 

Are there plans to update Cube IDE soon to use updated libraries?

    I had the same issue on my Ubuntu 24.

    I saw at https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stm32cubeide.html#get-software another linux version (STM32CubeIDE Generic Linux Installer) and I was able to install it.

    For now it seems to be working fine.
