I am trying to install nextcloud client via ppa on Ubuntu 20.10. However, when issuing apt install nextcloud-client I get the following error:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
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

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.

Any suggestion on how to fix the issue?

PS: I tried also via snap but I get basically the same error.

It is an Ubuntu issue. You’ll need to figure out how to resolve the unmet dependencies. Easiest way is search the exact errors it is showing you, adjusting words as needed.

Problem solved, I used the beta version of the package.
