unmet dependencies[solved]

Read 8670 times
I'm having an issue with g++ and libc6
Ubuntu 20.04
Apache2, Mariadb, VSftp and phpMyAdmin are also installed before CentovaCast
Worked flawlessly until NIC failure and I did a fresh OS install thinking I was backed I'd be OK.
Once the server was back online and setup as a LAMP servers I started the CC install. (see results below)

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

Error: Centova Cast installer: apt-get exited with an error, aborting

I found 1 bug post from 2014 that didn't provide a solution
I found a lot of examples for correcting the error at digitalocean, linux, askubuntu and others and still getting an install error
if I find the solution I'll share

I found this and completed the install
aptitude -f install build-essential
