Error installing updates

Hello guys

Just finally got round to updating my Rpi3, just getting some errors and a bit stuck…

Think Ive got a similar issue in that I may have used packages that conflict with those on OSMC? Like on this thread… Error installing: rpb-userland-osmc (1.9.0-1) on latest update - #24 by sam_nazarko

Tried diverting JustBoomDigi but didnt seem to work.

I know Ive not got the “cleanest” osmc with some customisations, but Ive always managed to get it to update… cant imagine having to do a clean rebuild- it would be most painful!

thanks for your help…

Well you may want to start by removing all the conflicting packages:
raspi-config 20161207
libasound2-data 1.0.28-1+rpi2
raspi-config 20170503

Also for future posting please use the paste.osmc.io

righto cheers…
apt-get --purge remove raspi-config ? etc

You might want to run ‘apt-get -f install’ to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
rbp-userland-dev-osmc : Depends: rbp-userland-osmc (= 2.3.1-1) but 1.7.0-1 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt-get -f install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).

upgrade rbp-userland-osmc somehow?

Give that a try but broken dependencies are a pain

yea gave that a go… still no bananas.
EDIT: seems the offending package was raspi-config… removed the sucker, everything else seemed to come good :slight_smile:
sudo dpkg -P raspi-config

only got this lot now, which doesnt look too serious…??

That error is some issue with that repo. Seek support for this from the maintainers there. It has nothing to do with OSMC or it’s included repos.

You added the Raspbian repo but not the key. My OSMC will fail updates if key is not valid for security reasons

Tried apt-get -f install but got an error. I’ve been Kodi-less for too long now…

Run dpkg -l | grep raspi-config

Looks like you still have (at least) one version installed.

Reinstall. You’ve borked your system by installing packages that are not supported.

i’ve also had problems on updating my system, but solved it like so:
dpkg -l | grep "<package name>". If the package that causes the problem it’s still listed, uninstall it with dpkg like so: sudo dpkg -r <package name> and purge it’s config files using sudo dpkg -P <package name> . Hope this helps.

Just reporting back mines all sorted…
All nicely updated/upgraded to latest.
it did complain about that source again as follows:
W: GPG error: http://archive.raspberrypi.org jessie InRelease: The following signatures couldn’t be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY

but a quick google to add the key back and now clean as a whistle! :slight_smile:

Take note of the 16 digit key and place it into the following statement.

gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-key x0x0x0x0x0x0x0x0
gpg -a --export x0x0x0x0x0x0x0x0 | sudo apt-key add -

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

cheers

I don’t believe we add this source, so not sure if it’s an OSMC issue, or if it will benefit other users.

Sam

Yea, I would’ve added this source to add customisations/packages. One of the reasons I and I expect a number of other OSMC users chose OSMC, is due to its flexibility and possibility of running other stuff other than OSMC in tandem on my Pi3. So believe it would benefit others who like me would have additional stuff running on top of OSMC.
Im not running anything too silly; just RetrOSMC, measureIT solar/power monitoring and Squeezebox server.

Appreciate the help even though your within your rights of course to tell us custom users to bugger off!

That’s fine – just make sure you keep that repository up to date (URL and key) as we don’t manage it for you.
