unmet dependencies
vitaly-zdanevich opened this issue · comments
The following packages have unmet dependencies: dpkg-dev : Depends: libdpkg-perl (= 1.17.5ubuntu5.7) but 1.18.18 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Ubuntu 14.04 with all updates.
Can you be more specific I need more information to replicate it? Ubuntu server? 32 or 64 bit, where and how are you using it, etc?
Ubuntu 14.04 i386 - I already fixed it - maybe for future users of your script you can replace apt-get to aptitude because the last one offer some help to fix broken dependencies. Also - thank you for this script.
Would you mind contributing a pull request? When I originally wrote this script I was using Trusty, but I've changed companies since then and use OSX. If something changes about a dependency I'm not going to know unless people like you bring it to my attention/contribute fixes.
@vitaly-zdanevich how did you fix it? I'm getting that problem when running the script:
dpkg: warning: downgrading git from 1:2.14.1-1.1ppa0ubuntu14.04.1 to 1:1.9.1-1ubuntu0.6

I'm closing this issue, I've got a faux-suite of docker tests and I'm able to build from source on ubuntu 14.04, 16.04, 18.04, 18.10, and 19.04 without un-met dependencies.
