Can't install KMail and KOrganizer (unmet dependencies)

Software PureOS
1

I was following the instructions in this page for installing KDE on PureOS: https://tracker.pureos.net/w/pureos/tips/install_kde/ and I got everything installed and working properly, but the KMail and KOrganizer. Both sofware have unmet dependencies:

sudo apt install kmail

Probably because of webengine. Can you confirm what exactly package is missing?

Are you expecting another output other than the one I shared in the original post? If yes, can you please guide me in how to get it? I can do basic stuff in Linux, but I’m not completely literate, sorry.

Yeah, I found it, libqt5webenginecore5 is missing. I’ll see what is happening.
