I suspect you have used alien, e.g.

sudo alien --script sqldeveloper-4.1.1.19.59-1.noarch.rpm

to create a deb package. Unfortunately, the created package can not be installed in your system because the package libc6-amd64 isn't available for Trusty in the needed version.

Repair your installation via

sudo apt-get purge sqldeveloper

sudo apt-get install -f

The interesting thing though is, in my case, that the generated DEB package has no dependence on libc6-amd64. But in your case... ok

Therefore start the command below. Copy and paste the whole block into a terminal and press Enter

mkdir deb$$; 

cp sqldeveloper_4.1.1.19.59-2_all.deb deb$$; 

cd deb$$; dpkg-deb -x sqldeveloper_4.1.1.19.59-2_all.deb deb; 

cd deb; 

dpkg-deb -e ../sqldeveloper_4.1.1.19.59-2_all.deb

Now start

cat DEBIAN/control

and you should see something like this

Package: sqldeveloper

Version: 4.1.1.19.59-2

Architecture: all

Maintainer: root <root@sturm>

Installed-Size: 393753

but not in your case. o_O

Therefore start the commands below to correct this and re-build the package

sed -i 's/libc6-amd64/libc6/' DEBIAN/control

cd ..

sudo dpkg-deb -b deb

Finally install with

sudo dpkg -i deb.deb

and that's all ;)

Make the first start please from the terminal, in my case had to be answered there a question.
