tryed sudo ifconfig wlan0 up returns no such device
running connman scan wifi comes back with Method “Scan” with signature “” on interface “net.connman.Technology” doesn’t exist
tested on 2 different osmc installs and both fail to see wifi device and bt device.
here is the log output
Unpacking rbp2-device-osmc (1.4.4) …

I was able to force the package to install and it fixed my issue of the missing wifi …
sudo dpkg --force-all --install /var/cache/apt/archives/rbp2-device-osmc_1.4.4_armhf.deb
It looks like something didn’t go right with the update as a result of you including the Raspberry Pi repository in the file /etc/apt/sources.list. You need to remove that line or further conflicts like this one are very likely to occur.
In this case, libasound2-data (rpi) is conflicting with rbp2-device-osmc, since they both try to write the same file: /usr/share/alsa/cards/HifiberryDigi.conf
Using --force simply masks the underlying problem, which is that you need to remove all the Raspbian packages with +rpi in the name and replace them with versions from the Debian repository. A quick scan of your log file brings up:
ii libasound2:armhf 1.0.28-1+rpi3 armhf shared library for ALSA applications
ii libasound2-data 1.0.28-1+rpi3 all Configuration files and profiles for ALSA drivers
ii libcairo-gobject2:armhf 1.14.0-2.1+deb8u2+rpi1 armhf Cairo 2D vector graphics library (GObject library)
ii libcairo2:armhf 1.14.0-2.1+deb8u2+rpi1 armhf Cairo 2D vector graphics library
ii libpam-modules:armhf 1.1.8-3.1+deb8u2+rpi3 armhf Pluggable Authentication Modules for PAM
ii libpam-modules-bin 1.1.8-3.1+deb8u2+rpi3 armhf Pluggable Authentication Modules for PAM - helper binaries
ii libpam-runtime 1.1.8-3.1+deb8u2+rpi3 all Runtime support for the PAM library
ii libpam0g:armhf 1.1.8-3.1+deb8u2+rpi3 armhf Pluggable Authentication Modules library
Once you’re removed the Raspberry Pi repository from /etc/apt/sources.list, you should then run
sudo apt-get update
and for each of the 8 packages:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall <packagename>Ok Thanks this was a custom build and i didnt realize that those sources were in there. thanks
