Hi, I am having trouble installing Julia on my Raspberry Pi 2 Model B. I get the following error message:

> $ sudo apt install julia  
> Reading package lists… Done  
> Building dependency tree  
> Reading state information… Done  
> Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

I am running Raspbian stretch:

> cat /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ stretch main contrib non-free rpi cat /etc/issue  
> Raspbian GNU/Linux 9 \n \l

Any help would be appreciated.
