jpearn 1 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I've been upgrading to the latest nightly mainline kernel every couple of weeks or so and had a problem today whilst updating linux-xenial-root-next-cubox-i dpkg output throws an error : root@JPCuboxi4:/boot# apt upgrade Reading package lists...

Igor 2301 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Nightly builds are automated - for developers and testing - and sometimes things go wrong. Try updating once again in approximately 6 hours from now. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zador.blood.stained 764 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Will be fixed eventually. Some files are being moved from one package to another, and currently there are some missing relationships between those packages. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpearn 1 Posted July 30, 2017 Author Share Posted July 30, 2017 Still getting the error, is it safe to remove armbian-tools-xenial for now or is it needed ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
