I have a fresh install from USB on partition 4 of a dual boot system. partition 5 is also running 21.10, but that partition is a backup which does NOT update. it was last updated 9/5 manually.
Following fresh install, i ran update/upgrade apt commands. recieved the dpkg error messages above. After steve's fix, i was able to update the libffi8 pkg via recovery mode root shell. However, this did not fix the system. it still has the same issue. dpkg and apt both show no broken packages and an up-to-date system as of 0700 today. apt show reports the -ubuntu4 version now installed. I am assuming that the crashed update to the -unubtu3 version broke something else? any ideas how to restore short of reinstalling yet again, and if i do reinstall, could there be another conflict that will break it again? Dell laptop amd64 all yours, it you have a suggestion or need info, let me know what commands to run and where to post/send the output. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1943312 Title: dependency problems of version 3.4.2-1ubuntu3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libffi/+bug/1943312/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
