apt-get upgrade error,

**wlraider70** · May 29th, 2013

I'm having an issue upgrading

Here are some of reports

Code:

    sudo apt-get upgrade
    
    Errors were encountered while processing:
     /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-3.2.0-44-generic-pae_3.2.0-44.69_i386.deb
    
    
    server@philo:/$ sudo apt-get upgrade -f
    The following NEW packages will be installed:
      linux-image-3.2.0-44-generic-pae
    E: Internal Error, No file name for libssl1.0.0

So I tried this...

server@philo:/mnt/halftb/media/Videos$ sudo dpkg --configure -a

Errors were encountered while processing:
linux-image-generic-pae

Also

sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0

nothing

Heres a ton of output...

    libssl1.0.0 is already the newest version.
    You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:

Are you really still on 10.04 as your profile says?

If so, you need to update to a newer ubuntu version as 10.04 has lost support. If you are on 12.04 libssl1.0.0 is in the repos, so should be installable.

**wlraider70** · May 30th, 2013

It is out dated. This is a 12.04 machine.
However 1004 is an LTS wouldn't it still be supported?

wlraider70; Hi !

Try this first ( I really do not expect a good result)

Code:

 sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

just to see if the package manager's smart mode will reolve that issue.
Then if no effect do:

Code:

sudo dpkg --remove linux-generic-pae
sudo apt-get install linux-generic-pae

//

Removing linux-generic will do no harm at all. It is only a "meta-package" depending on linux-image-generic and linux-headers-generic. Those two are themselves meta-packages depending on the respective latest image/headers packages.

You can see this for yourself by issuing apt-cache show linux-generic, apt-cache show linux-image-generic and apt-cache show linux-headers-generic.

The purpose of meta-packages is to pull-in the packages on which they depend, they have no functionality at all. On the other hand removing one will not remove it's dependencies - so no danger to the system.

all good now ??

**wlraider70** · May 31st, 2013

Ok I seem to have gotten it. I had cleared out old files, but I guess it was enough to not give me a "low /boot folder space" but not enough to install the next kernel.

SO the question can I delete all this stuff? Do I have to use a special method of can i `rm` them?

THANKS

wlraider70;
Yes, old kernels can and should be removed and that will go a long way toward resolution of your present crisis; house clean first.

Code:

sudo apt-get autoclean 
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.2.0-{38,39,40,41,43}-generic-pae
sudo apt-get purge linux-headers-3.2.0-{38,39,40,41,43}-generic-pae
sudo apt-get --purge autoremove ##The 'autoremove' based command simply removes the old kernel modules.

Keeping 2 "working" kernels - newest installed and 1 latter (45 and 44) and to be dealt with is the xxxx.45 version.
Now lets look at where you stand:

Code:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

we be look'n

no luck...

I did however get a differnt message about /boot being full.
I'm going to clean that now.
