I was updating an etch server when I ran into the following error:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6-dev: Depends: libc6 (= 2.3.6.ds1-13etch2) but 2.3.6.ds1-13
is installed
I ran apt-get -f install which yielded:
Preparing to replace libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 (using .../
libc6_2.3.6.ds1-13etch2_i386.deb) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: line 130: ls: command not found
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: line 130: ls: command not found
Unpacking replacement libc6 ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/
libc6_2.3.6.ds1-13etch2_i386.deb (--unpack):
unable to create `./usr/sbin/zic': Permission denied
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.3.6.ds1-13etch2_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I am root, so I don't understand the permission denied. Why certain
commands aren't found is even more perplexing.
Any ideas?
BTW, I found one post that the person said he fixed his problem by
removing something called virtualbox and then reinstalling it. I
don't have virtualbox installed.
Thanks for any ideas.
Curtis
