Hi All,
I am currently having issues with trying to remove Samba from my Ubuntu Server box.
sudo apt-get remove samba
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED
samba
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 63 not upgraded.
2 not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 0 B/235 kB of archives.
After this operation, 23.4 MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y
dpkg: error processing samba (--remove):
Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
reinstall it before attempting a removal.
Errors were encountered while processing:
samba
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
So upon receiving this error I have tried to update samba
sudo apt-get install samba
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
samba : Depends: samba-common (= 2:3.6.3-2ubuntu2.8) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: samba-common-bin
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
So I then tried to apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get -f install
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Correcting dependencies... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
samba samba-common samba-common-bin
Suggested packages:
openbsd-inetd inet-superserver smbldap-tools ldb-tools ctdb
The following NEW packages will be installed
samba-common samba-common-bin
The following packages will be upgraded:
samba
1 upgraded, 2 newly installed, 0 to remove and 63 not upgraded.
2 not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 0 B/14.8 MB of archives.
After this operation, 19.0 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y
