After updating python version libc6 was broken on my Ubuntu 12.04
I have libc6 2.18-4 and it broken.
It was installed from unstable repo. From precise repo I see 2.15.0 version of libc6. But if I try to force it, I see long list of “To be removed” packages. How can I prevent this deletion and fix my libc6?
Error message:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of locales: libc6:i386 (2.18-4) breaks locales (<< 2.18) and is installed. Version of locales to be configured is 2.13+git20120306-3. libc6 (2.18-4) breaks locales (<< 2.18) and is installed. Version of locales to be configured is 2.13+git20120306-3. dpkg: error processing locales (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Answer
It seems like libc6 library depends on 2.13+git20120306-3. But I can’t repair libc6 without installing a locales 2.18-4. So, I just replaced locales with the locales-all 2.18-4 and removed the annoting locales library.
Problem solved! There isn’t a conflict now!
