Re: Broken packages when updating

Post by mms »

After having inserted the 2d line of command, I had a very long list of packages that weren't meeting their dependencies.
And so, I started to install what was missing.

All good, until I started to have the aforementioned kind of mistake:

Lawmaking: Select all

                  sudo apt-get install --reinstall libapt-pkg5.0  Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading land information... Done You might want to run 'apt --ready-cleaved install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies.  dpkg : Breaks: libapt-pkg5.0 (< one.vii~b) simply 1.2.35 is to be installed  wine : Depends: wine1.6 but it is non going to exist installed  wine1.6-i386:i386 : Depends: wine1.six:any (= one:1.half dozen.ii-0ubuntu14.2)                      Recommends: libp11-kit-gnome-keyring:i386 but information technology is not going to be installed                      Recommends: libpng12-0:i386 merely it is non going to be installed Eastward: Unmet dependencies. Effort 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Whatever thoughts on this?

That wine version is seriously old. If I was in your shoes and nevertheless needing wine, I would purge it completely and install the latest straight from winehq.org.

I imagine someone else here far more knowledgeable than I am can explain the technically details equally to why your update conflicts are happening be information technology just your newer version of Mint versus the onetime wine version or newer repos or updates tin't use to older wine. *shrugs*
