Description

The llibgstreamer package changed name.
This is how an attempt to install libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-dev on newer Ubuntu went:

Package libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  libgstreamer-plugins-extra1.0-dev

Pull request overview

Updates the Linux dependency installer to handle Debian/Ubuntu package renames on newer Ubuntu releases (notably Ubuntu 26.04+), so QGroundControl’s build dependencies can still be installed successfully.

Changes:

  • Add a Debian/Ubuntu package alternative mapping for renamed/replaced packages (GStreamer “good” dev package → “extra” dev package).
  • Improve apt availability detection by switching from apt-cache show to apt-cache policy and checking for a non-(none) install candidate.
  • Resolve package alternatives prior to running the main apt-get install.
