hi all,
wondering if someone can recommend a fix.
a few days ago I was playing with bluetooth packages due to issues, was in a bit of a hurry don’t recall seeing any error messages, but clearly there was. didnt think much of it at the time. recently tried to install telnet client, but getting the following which is having an affect on updates, etc.
osmc@osmc-gee:~$ sudo apt-get install telnet
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
You might want to run ‘apt --fix-broken install’ to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
blueman : Depends: obexd-client (>= 0.47) but it is not installable or
bluez-obexd but it is not going to be installed
Depends: obexd-server (>= 0.47) but it is not installable or
bluez-obexd but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt --fix-broken install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).
then attempted a fix:
osmc@osmc-gee:~$ sudo apt --fix-broken install

files owned by multiple packages. could try remove armv7-bluez-osmc 5.43-3 and then bluez-obexd and check status, re-install armv7-bluez-osmc 5.43-3 again?
have attempted apt-get install -f & dpkg -configure -a, but ran into the same error.
system is not too customized; transmission/samba from local builds + openvpn. been very stable otherwise.
appreciate the thoughts.
Peace, nacro.
after removing blueman, things look good again. thanks for your help once again
