I tried to install Minecraft on Ubuntu 26. During the process, I received the following error message:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
minecraft-launcher: Depends on: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0) but it is not installable
From the error message, you can see that a typo is the problem. The file is not called libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 but libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0. Because the hyphen before the 2 is missing, the installation fails.
