Go to software centre and search for mintupdate
and remove it. I had to do this twice as the first time failed.
I then installed it again and the problem was fixed.
I installed aptitude and got these proposed solutions:
$ sudo aptitude install makerware

It seems that when I added the repository for MuseScore and upgraded MuseScore to 2.0, it also updated qt to 5.3 which seems to be incompatible with Makerware.
For now, it looks like I have to downgrade MuseScore or not use Makerware.

The only option exist is to Build it from Sources, since you're running Vivid (15.04) version which has reached EOL (End Of Life).
Download the source code and its prerequisites:
Compile the sources (note: this command will differ depending on where you initially saved the .bz2 archive), you can also modify option for
build
command. In this case we'll use very basic option:NOTE: Make sure you have read the docs to view available option.
Now we are ready to build gcc
Run
make
command to build gcc, this steps will take a long time to complete.Once the above phase is finished, you can install built gcc with:
Once this process has completed, run the command
gcc --version
to verify that the installation has completed successfully.
