[Stephen P. Molnar]

Thanks for your reply.

Here's what happened:

comp at AbNormal:~/Downloads/ChimeraX$ sudo apt-get install 
./ucsf-chimerax_1.2.5-1_amd64.deb
[sudo] password for comp:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'ucsf-chimerax' instead of 
'./ucsf-chimerax_1.2.5-1_amd64.deb'
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:
  ucsf-chimerax : Depends: libgfortran3 but it is not installable
                  Depends: libllvm3.8 but it is not installable
                  Depends: libssl1.0.0 but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
comp at AbNormal:~/Downloads/ChimeraX$

Synaptic didn't find any broken packages. Although I've been using Linux 
since the Red Hat Mother's Day distribution, I am strictly an Organic 
Chemist. not a computer person.
