Package: apt-get
Version: apt 2.5.2 (i386)
addendum to my email of 18.09.2022 22:11
The problematic nature lies deeper.
1. for muon (e.g.):
/var/log/dpkg.log shows:
2022-09-18 20:15:28
status installed muon:i386 4:5.08.-2
2022-09-18 20:15:29
remove muon:i386 4:5.08.-2 <none>
2022-09-18 20:15:29
status half-configured muon:i386 4:5.08.-2
2022-09-18 20:15:29
status half-installed muon:i386 4:5.08.-2
2022-09-18 20:15:29
status triggers-pending hicolor-icon-theme:all 0.17-2
2022-09-18 20:15:30
status config-files muon:i386 4:5.08.-2
2022-09-18 20:15:30
status not-installed muon:i386 <none>
dpkg-query --status muon
shows:
dpkg-query: package 'muon' is not installed and no information is available
(remark: muon I have had installed by hand)
==
2. for konsole (e.g.):
2022-09-18 20:15:37
status installed konsole:i386 4:22.04.1-1
2022-09-18 20:15:37
remove konsole:i386 4:22.04.1-1 <none>
2022-09-18 20:15:37
status half-installed konsole:i386 4:22.04.1-1
2022-09-18 20:15:39
status config-files konsole:i386 4:22.04.1-1
dpkg-query --status konsole
shows:
Status: deinstall ok config-files
... many lines ...

( my email of 18.09.2022 22:11 without correct pseudo-header lines)
On the way to repaire my system KNOPPIX 9.1, which was damaged by aptitude,
that had removed thousands of packages, I have just used apt-get:
apt-get install kde-runtime
This gave a long list of depends error masseges ref. libqtcore4, the last
lines were:
libsolid4 : Depends: libqtcore4 (>= 4:4.8.0) but it is not installable.
Then I have made:
apt-get install libqtcore4
While apt-get was working, apt-get had removed very many packages, e.g.
muon, and, e.g., konsole !!!!
After this apt-get was finished, I have repeated:
apt-get install kde-runtime
The result was the same long list as described above.
However libqtcore4 is correctly installed.
dpkg-query --status libqtcore4
shows::
Status: install ok installed
Version: 4:8.4.7+dfsg-18+deb10u1
Now I have to reinstall konsole, muon, and the many other senselessly
removed packages. - days of hard work.
( München had 10 years worked to intruduce Linux in the city goverment and
gave up. In Linux is all weird and unreliable. Must it be? )
