Can't upgrade Sublime Text Dev

#1

When I try to upgrade sublime to version 3181 the console show me this:

debian-mr# apt-get upgrade sublime-text
Leyendo lista de paquetes... Hecho
Creando árbol de dependencias       
Leyendo la información de estado... Hecho
Calculando la actualización... Hecho
No se pudieron instalar algunos paquetes. Esto puede significar que
usted pidió una situación imposible o, si está usando la distribución
inestable, que algunos paquetes necesarios aún no se han creado o se
han sacado de «Incoming».
La siguiente información puede ayudar a resolver la situación:

Los siguientes paquetes tienen dependencias incumplidas:
 sublime-text : Depende: libgtk-3.0 pero no es instalable
E: Paquetes rotos

But I have installed the latest version of libgtk-3.0 in the repositories

debian-mr# apt-get install libgtk-3-0
Leyendo lista de paquetes... Hecho
Creando árbol de dependencias       
Leyendo la información de estado... Hecho
libgtk-3-0 ya está en su versión más reciente (3.22.11-1).
fijado libgtk-3-0 como instalado manualmente.
0 actualizados, 0 nuevos se instalarán, 0 para eliminar y 1 no actualizados.

OS

debian-mr# cat /etc/debian_version

Same here, here’s the english error message:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
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
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 sublime-text : Depends: libgtk-3.0 but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

The problem seems to me that sublime wants libgtk-3.0 whereas the linux package for GTK3 is named libgtk-3-0.

I had the same issue.
If like me you don’t want to wait for the package to be fixed, you can install it manually by downloading the .deb file on the website and ignoring the requirements with dpkg like this :
sudo dpkg --ignore-depends=libgtk-3.0 -i sublime-text_build-3181_amd64.deb

Thank you very much, helped me under xubuntu 18.10.

We’ve updated the package and repo with the correct dependency name. If you apt-get update you should be able to install without issue now.
