Hi all,
I am trying to upgrade my Ubuntu 8.04 installation to 10.04 using the alternate CD (mounted ISO image). It is reporting a problem with dependencies on perlapi-5.8.4 and perlapi-5.8.8. As far as I understand it these are virtual packages which are resolved by perl-base which I have version 5.8.8 of. The end of the apt.log produced looks like this:
Investigating libdbi-perl
Package libdbi-perl has broken dep on perlapi-5.8.4
Considering perl-base 5307 as a solution to libdbi-perl 2
Removing libdbi-perl rather than change perlapi-5.8.4
Investigating libdbd-mysql-perl
Package libdbd-mysql-perl has broken dep on perlapi-5.8.8
Considering perl-base 5307 as a solution to libdbd-mysql-perl 0
Removing libdbd-mysql-perl rather than change perlapi-5.8.8
Investigating mysql-server-5.1
Package mysql-server-5.1 has broken dep on libdbi-perl
Considering libdbi-perl 2 as a solution to mysql-server-5.1 0
Holding Back mysql-server-5.1 rather than change libdbi-perl
Investigating mysql-client-5.1
Package mysql-client-5.1 has broken dep on libdbi-perl
Considering libdbi-perl 2 as a solution to mysql-client-5.1 0
Holding Back mysql-client-5.1 rather than change libdbi-perl
Investigating mysql-server
Package mysql-server has broken dep on mysql-server-5.1
Considering mysql-server-5.1 0 as a solution to mysql-server 10000
Reinst Failed because of libdbi-perl
Reinst Failed because of mysql-client-5.1
Can anyone suggest what is causing this problem and a possible solution could be.
Thanks
