 Description   

Problem Statement/Rationale

What is going wrong? What action would you like the Engineering team to take?
When installing Compass on ubuntu1804-large with both dpkg and apt package management tools the process fails because of missing dependencies. With dpkg it might be expected, but apt probably should have handled this and resolved dependencies.

Expected Results

What do you expect to happen?
Compass is installed.

Actual Results

What do you observe is happening?
The installation process terminates with the following error:

ubuntu@ip-10-128-232-70:~$ sudo apt-get install ./mongodb-compass_1.35.0_amd64.deb
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 mongodb-compass : Depends: libgconf-2-4 but it is not installed or
                            libgconf2-4 but it is not installed
                   Depends: libxss1 but it is not installed
                   Depends: gnome-keyring
                   Depends: libgconf-2-4 but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
