Repair the Bootloader fails: Unmet dependencies.

Open texttheater opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

I followed the instructions on https://support.system76.com/articles/bootloader/ (Pop_OS!, EFI mode, NVMe drive). It works fine until I get to the part where it tells me to execute this command:

apt install --reinstall linux-image-generic linux-headers-generic

This fails with the following message:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 linux-generic : Depends: linux-image-generic (= 6.2.6.76060206.202303130630~1683753207~22.04~77c1465) but 6.2.6.76060206.202303130630~1685473338~22.04~995127e is to be installed
                 Depends: linux-headers-generic (= 6.2.6.76060206.202303130630~1683753207~22.04~77c1465) but 6.2.6.76060206.202303130630~1685473338~22.04~995127e is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Does running the commands in the Package Manager Issues support article help? https://support.system76.com/articles/package-manager-pop


System76 customers can reach out to support for technical assistance. For non-System76 hardware, you can seek community support on Reddit or Mattermost.
