Installation and Upgrades / Re: Fresh System install + update + upgrade = apt destroyed in loop

« on: October 28, 2018, 12:30:33 pm »

For now, I installed without internet connection and didn't apply updates. I didn't encounter the problem with SOGo not being able to install this time around for whatever reason. Maybe a one time installation corruption, I'm not sure. The error itself is still unsolved though.

I'm really curious if I will be able to get a proper web server + db + PHP setup going as I need a web server and WordPress on the system up and running as well.

Same here. My system updates ended with the same error. Apt and apt-get no longer available. 

Solved it by manually reinstalling apt's older version (1.2.28 and above don't work)

Code: [Select]

wget https://distros-repository.usharesoft.com/ubuntu/xenial-proposed/mirror/bouyguestelecom.ubuntu.lafibre.info/ubuntu/pool/main/a/apt/apt_1.2.27_amd64.deb
wget https://distros-repository.usharesoft.com/ubuntu/xenial-proposed/mirror/bouyguestelecom.ubuntu.lafibre.info/ubuntu/pool/main/a/apt/apt-utils_1.2.27_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i apt_1.2.27_amd64.deb apt-utils_1.2.27_amd64.deb


Unfortunately going back is resulting in the same loop for me. Can't use old apt to install packages for 5.1 or 5.1.1. He demands I update apt first which is broken afterwards. using the same version of apt, libapt and  APTPKG_5.0 libraries is not changing me having this issue.

I looked into this a bit more and it could be related to juju somehow. I tried re linking the libraries to the correct once which was suggested in a Ubuntu forum thread but to no avail.

Installation and Upgrades / Fresh System install + update + upgrade = apt destroyed in loop

« on: October 27, 2018, 06:24:14 pm »

Hi,

I just installed the development edition of Zentyal on a virtualbox vm. When I tried to install packages in the installation screen like firewall etc.
I got the error message that there are dependencies not met relating to the SOGo, I just couldn't choose any package with that name.

I then concluded to try and update the system first and proceeded by starting the update/upgrade process in the GUI. This finished successfully.

I continued to try and choose the packages I wanted to install, this time apt seems to be corrupted by the update.

The error is: "apt-get: relocation error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libapt-private.so.0.0: symbol _ZN9pkgSystem9LockInnerEv, version APTPKG_5.0 not defined in file libapt-pkg.so.5.0 with link time reference"

Now If I go ahead and install the demanded packages (apt and libapt-pkg) I get "unmet dependencies try apt-get -f install"

I'm stuck in a loop and the suggested solution from the internet doesn't work. I'm afraid I don't know enough about this to solve this problem. Any clues?
