package management - Cannot Do Anything With apt-get - broken dependencies with kmod. What do? - Ask Ubuntu


(precise)fatih@localhost:~$ sudo apt-get -f install reading package lists... done building dependency tree        reading state information... done correcting dependencies... failed. following packages have unmet dependencies:  kmod : breaks: module-init-tools (< 4)         breaks: module-init-tools:i386 (< 4) e: error, pkgproblemresolver::resolve generated breaks, may caused held packages. e: unable correct dependencies 

i've been unable anything. install wont work, configure doesn't help, , neither updating stuff. can fix dependency?

(precise)fatih@localhost:~$ lsb_release -a; apt-cache policy kmod module-init-tools module-init-tools:i386 no lsb modules available. distributor id: ubuntu description:    ubuntu 14.04.5 lts release:    14.04 codename:   trusty kmod:   installed: 15-0ubuntu6   candidate: 15-0ubuntu6   version table:  *** 15-0ubuntu6 0         500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 packages         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status module-init-tools:   installed: (none)   candidate: 15-0ubuntu6   version table:      15-0ubuntu6 0         500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 packages module-init-tools:i386:   installed: 3.16-1ubuntu2   candidate: 3.16-1ubuntu2   version table:  *** 3.16-1ubuntu2 0         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 

edit 2:

kmod:i386:   installed: (none)   candidate: 15-0ubuntu6   version table:      15-0ubuntu6 0         500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main i386 packages 

you have module-init-tools:i386 installed module-init-tools (amd64) should installed instead. got previous ppa, because can't find version 3.16-1ubuntu2 in official repository.

another point module-init-tools transient package kmod, should have same version installed, otherwise conflict.

  1. force remove module-init-tools:i386 has depandants

    sudo dpkg --remove --force-depends module-init-tools:i386 
  2. install amd64 component instead

    sudo apt-get install module-init-tools 
  3. run apt fix check if thing missing

    sudo apt-get -f install
