        Seems that the Ubuntu 12.04 binaries were directly copied from Ubuntu 14.04 build. So they will ask for higher versions of libraries that are not available.

        I’ve reported to the PPA maintainer. Just wait the 12.04 binaries to be updated.

        PPA page:

          Fixed!

          Now the PPA provides latest Komodo-edit for Ubuntu 14.10, Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 12.04, and Ubuntu 10.04. An old version is available for Ubuntu 13.10, Ubuntu 13.04, Ubuntu 12.10.
