recently started reading structure and interpretation of a programing language and as such I want to install the mit-scheme interpreter but I realized whenever I installed it, it uninstalled postgres and whenever I installed postgres it uninstalled mit-scheme. My question is how can I install these two packages alongside each other seeing as I use both

are you sure that there is no other package involved?

when I run the installation command for mit-scheme it uninstalls PostgreSQL and when I run the command for PostgreSQL it unistalls mit-scheme .... No other package is invovled

I have both posgresql and mit-scheme on ubuntu14.04 installed and there is no conflict. Which versions of packages are you trying to install? (mine is 9.1.1-5 for mit-scheme and postgresql 9.3.9-0)

kindly share the command for installing mit-sheme with me. I mean the version you have .. Because I just do sudo apt-get install mit-scheme ... I don't specify the version or anything

I just use my favourite package manager, but you can use the usual 'sudo apt-get install mit-scheme'. And you may want to first run 'sudo apt-get update'.

OK, the situation is more clear now. It seems you are mixing two different architectures. Your screenshot shows libpq5:386 being installed while libpq5 being removed. This results in the whole Postgres being removed as it depends on libpq5. Mit-scheme also depends on that package, but since your Scheme packages are with ":386" postfix, they need the :386 version of the libpq5. However libpq5 and libpq5:386 probably do not like to be installed simultaneously. Install the 64-bit mit-scheme package and you will get rid of the problem.
