..about Linux, open source and me

While dist-upgrading some old ubuntu desktop at work I run into the following error.

E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on libc6

And because the solutions I found on the web didn’t work, here is one that does!

apt-get clean
apt-get install libstdc++6
aptitude reinstall libstdc++6

–update– Joris and I run into the same problem today, only worse. This time we also had to use “force depends” to fix it.

sudo dpkg –force-depends –install libc6_2.8~20080505-0ubuntu7_i386.deb findutils_4.4.0-2ubuntu3_i386.deb

sudo apt-get -f install

I think the trick lies in the last two commands, the first one only clears the cache.
