[Rpcemu] Problem with Qt5

Some months ago, for reasons I can't recall, I was
interrupted while installing RPCEmu on my main Linux box. I
had got as far as installing the Qt5 development package.

Having now successfully installed RPCEmu on two different
Linux Mint laptops as well as on a 64 GB USB flash drive, I
decided to do the same with my main machine.

Having forgotten my earlier attempt, I started from scratch
and, after trying to install the development package, got
the following error in the terminal:
___________________________________

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.
build-essential : Depends: libc6-dev but it is not going
to be installed or
libc-dev
Depends: g++ (>= 4:9.2) but it is not
going to be installed
qtmultimedia5-dev : Depends: libglib2.0-dev but it is not
going to be installed
Depends: libpulse-dev but it is not
going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken
packages.
___________________________________

My Linux skills are limited and I don't know how to
proceed. Can I uninstall the broken set up and if so, what
command(s) can I use?

I have looked on the internet and all I can find refers to
using the MaintenanceTool but the search tool can't find
that anywhere in root.

Any help will be gratefully received.

John
