anybody help me? dependency problem: no way back???

I made an upgrade with atp-get after having installed some packages.
I got some dependency problems, so I tried

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:

You can try updating xmms-kd3 as well, or removing it and installing it 
at a later time. To remove it in the same command you use to upgrade 
libc you can add xmms-kd3- (no quotes) to the apt-get install 
command-line.

Hope it helps.

Subject: RE: anybody help me? dependency problem: no way back???

Looks like a conflict over /usr/lib64. I'm having the same problem right
now, but between libc6 and base-files, and I've hosed my system. (I'm sure I
just made a large majority of the list groan and/or laugh at me.) My
understanding is that you can force the install with dpkg, using the
following:

dpkg - dpkg --force-overwrite -i
/var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.pure64_amd64.deb

I would check elsewhere before doing this though, because my intranet server
will tell you that I've hosed this before.

For anyone on the list that's dealt with this, it this suggested solution
correct? Also, I have a system where some idiot (me) temporarily uninstalled
base-files in order to upgrade libc6. If I did this same command from an
ubuntu AMD64 live cd for libc6 and base-files, but with the -root= option,
fix the problem for me? Thanks.

I knew moving the link would create problems. There just isn't a way
to make it foolproof with dpkg. Lets hope you are the last stragler.

PS: I recommend you reinstall libc6 and then dist-upgrade to be on the

Re: FW: anybody help me? dependency problem: no way back??? SOLVED

2005-02-20 Thread Erik Norman
I have resolved the problem

I used the Synaptic Package Manager to remove the package with the
broken dependency, then I removed xmms-kde and xmms.
Upgrade (without problems)
Install xmms-kde and xmms and all other packages which were removed at
the same time (kde kdeaddons kdenetwork kicker-applets kopete
mplayer-amd64 xmp-xmms) - no problems.

apt-get upgrade
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Problem solved.


Thanx for any help!

I thought I had already upgraded base-files and libc6 after the move. I'll
give your suggestion a try. I need to reinstall base-files as well (I
removed it in a spectacular display of stupidity.) I can't even login at the
console right now, hence the part about using a live cd. I'll definitely
write up a report on how I fixed it if I'm successful.

Removing the old base-files removed the /lib64 - /lib link. That
means all dynamically linked binaries fail to find the ld.

/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /bin/ln -s /lib /lib64

of from a live CD just ln -s /lib /mountpoint/lib64.

After that the system should work again and reinstalling libc6 will
get the /lib64 link owned by libc6 correctly.

 The system has been running for about 48 hours now, I did not think of
 upgrading now, since I was still installing and configuring all the
 programs I need/want.

 Since I am newbie to Debian (I have used Fedora before) there is still
 much I must learn.

Then how did you get the libc6 and libc6-dev versions mixed up?
Apt-get should never have let you do this to your system without
sufficient force options (and you would know if you used them) so I'm
quite baffeled.

There probably is some plausible explaination I'm just not
seeing. This is one of those This should never happen bugs that do
happen non the less sometimes.

Anyway, I hope you got it fixed now.

You are my savior. Thank you. Now before I continue with the upgrade I
should have done two months ago, are there any other major package conflicts
I should be aware of? I installed the system as sid in the first week of
December. I pinned the system to testing last week, and this morning's
problem was the first upgrade I tried. Here's what apt-get upgrade wants to
do:

The following packages will be upgraded:

Nothing I'm aware of or as catastrophic as the libc6/base-files
problem that basically kills the system. Please note that I'm running
sid on my main system with sarge chroots for tests and buildd though.

If something doesn't work you can always go back to the sid versions
(lower the pin below 1000 then).

MfG
Goswin

PS: Sarge needs users to find any remaining problems. The more the
better. So thanks for doing it.
