Debian :: Repositories Not Installing - Broken Packages Error
Jun 4, 2015
I've been trying to install a few programs with the basic Debian repositories on my Jessie edition, but I keep getting a "broken packages" error and "cannot be installed" error, and the programs won't install.
I went to other repositories, e.g. Mint and Ubuntu, and with these included in my sources.list file, I was able to install the desired programs.
If the programs are listed in Debian and the dependecies as well, why would they not install?

I've been trying to fix this problem for quite a few days now and have done a lot of searching on these forums, Linux Mint Forums and some others Google lead me to and have has some success, but am now stuck.I have posted a thread on this same topic on the Linux Mint Forums, but have had no success (if you want check it out at:URL...Originally I received error messages when trying to update involving certain repositories which couldn't be accessed (because they either didn't exist or had been moved) and I hunted these down and changed or removed them.
I have done much searching, etc. and cannot find any broken packages. I have tried many many different commands which have mostly done nothing.I seem to be in a similar boat to this person: URL...

I have Lenny in a multi-boot system on a HP Pavilion DV-1000 laptop, and yesterday when I logged in, noticed the red (-) icon on the right of the top panel. Mouse over it gave the message: "An error occurred, please run Package Manager from the right-click menu to see what is ". On doing so, Synaptic came up with "You have 3 broken packages on your system! Use the "Broken" filter to locate them". Selecting "Broken dependencies" resulted in the "base-files", base-passwd", and "dpkg" being listed. All three had "Installed Version" the same as "Latest Version", but marked in red in the check boxes.
Did "Edit"->"Fix Broken Packages" which marked the packages green. Clicking "Apply" gave a summary list: coreutils, gawk, gcc-4.3-base, libacl1, libattr1, libc6, libgcc1, libselinux1, libstdc++6, and izma as the packages that needed to be installed. Clicked "Apply" and got: "E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on libc6" A Google search indicated several people had run into this problem, but I could not find one consistent solution that seemed to address the problem completely.

I am new to linux (ubuntu) and I really like it, but the same day I installed ubuntu in my vaio, it asked me to install the upgrades, and after I did it there is sign in my desktop saying:
An error occurred, please run Package manager from the right click menu or apt-get in a terminal to see what is wrong,
The error message was 'error BrokenCount >0. This usually means that you installed packages with unmet dependencies
So I did some research and use the package manager (it says that I have 280 broken packages) and try to fix broken packages but it did not work. I had to learn how to use the terminal and I did things like apt-get clean all or update upgrade etc but nothing works the message still there.

So I'm trying to run the update manager through Ubuntu Tweak, and every time I try to install updates, I get the error: "Could not apply changes! Fix broken packages first."
I've gone into my terminal and run sudo apt-get update with no problems, so I'm not exactly sure what packages are causing the issue,

I am working on a project which targets both 32 and 64 bit architectures at the moment. My system is amd64. I added i386 architecture using this guide. However, my problem is
Code: Select allapt-get install package-name:i386
prompts the removal of currently installed packages (amd64 arch.) which is the problem.
Code: Select allReading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
libportaudio0:i386
[Code] ...
Some of the packages I am talking about are
-libegl1-mesa-dev:i386
-libportaudio-dev:i386
Now, as of now, I want to carry out the compilation using 32 bit libraries, however, I really don't want to install 64bit version of all prerequisites each time I switch the compilation from 32 bit to 64. Is there any way to have both architectures at the same time?

what should not be mentioned:
*disabling "Automatically fix broken packages before installing or removing" in aptitude -- because it does not work
*editing /var/lib/dkpg/status -- not related to apt-get really
* -m or -f options of apt-get -- because they do not help me in any way
* downloading the package manually and using dpkg --force-depends-version -i <package> -- again, not apt-get
I need the --just shut the fuck up and dl&install the darn package option immediately.

I am just too tired and am missing something in the man pages for aptitude and not getting my search terms right but I can't seem to find a way to make aptitude ignore a couple of supposed broken packages (they work just fine by the way). The only way I can find to remidy the situation is to remove those couple of packages or upgrade several things to their Squeeze counter parts. I really don't want to try and do the upgrade as at home I am stuck on a 56k connection. Removing the broken packages I guess won't be too bad if I can find the debs again after I install a couple of things I want to add to my system. I would however just like to make aptitude ignore the state of my system and try to install what I want anyway.

Without knowing the consequences I added the Sid repository to Wheezy (installed version) in order to install some software. Only much later I discovered that this generated me some mess which does not allow now to install additional software due to library conflicts.
I tried to install some packages needed to build the PhantomJS but here is what I got:
Code: Select allReading package lists...
Building dependency tree...
Reading state information...
build-essential is already the newest version.
g++ is already the newest version.
g++ set to manually installed.
[Code] ....
Is there a way to clean up the mess that Sid introduced and revert back to the Wheezy versions?
I have an old backup, so it would take me much more time to reinstall/reconfigure certain software, so I am looking to alternatives.
Is there a way to check all the packages and find all the potential conflicts and then a way to restore the original Wheezy content?

Is this a problem in Debian repos (held packages) or I'm actually doing something wrong?

I did the UPGRADE from Karmic Koala to Lucid, and everything was going well. But now I've been having problems with the UBUNTU UPDATE tool for the last 2 weeks. Every time I try to do an update check on the packages, I get the following message:Failed to fetch http:[url]....Release Unable to find expected entry deb-src/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.I've tried changing the servers to MAIN and others, and still no way to solve it. I've also checked for other posts, but haven't found a solution yet. Here's my SOURCES LIST (gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list)# See http:[url].... for how to upgrade to # newer versions of the distribution.

It was not possible to authenticate some packages. This may be a transient network problem. You may want to try again later. See below for a list of unauthenticated packages.

I have downloaded the entire Debian 5-dvd set. I want synaptic, apt-get and aptitude to first check online if there's a new version of the packages selected to install, if there's a new version, then get the packages online and install, if not, then ask to insert the corresponding dvd and install from that. Is there anyway to configure this?

I open up Synaptic Package Manager, I get the dialogue, "You have 1 broken package, use the Broken Filter to locate it." So I do, and I find flashplugin-nonfree. So I try to reinstall it, and the two packages that are installed are flashplugin-nonfree and flashpluin-installer. However, I always get this error message:

I was going to try out E16 and installed it via apt-get install. It ran through the usual of retrieving the required dependencies and whatnot, but as it was "setting" everything up as Debian usually does when installing packages, it seemed to take forever, to install a measly 6 or so megabytes.
Why is this? I regularly run "apt-get autoremove", "apt-get autoclean", and "apt-get clean", as well as check for orphaned packages and residual configs in Synaptic. Also, for some reason, Synaptic finds more packages left behind than the terminal finds.

Now that seems odd to me. Am I ok to proceed or will I be left without a desktop? Following advice in an earlier thread, I pointed my sources.list at testing to move to a rolling distro; having installed squeeze beta 2, I'm wondering if using testing is what is causing this?
