Hi to all, I´ve encountered a problem when I try to upgrade or install any package: This is the result to execute the command sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade: Extracting templates from packages: 100% Preconfiguring packages ... (Reading database ... 61996 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack .../libc6_2.35-0ubuntu3.6_amd64.deb ... dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute new libc6:amd64 package pre-installation script (/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst): Permission denied dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.35-0ubuntu3.6_amd64.deb (--unpack): new libc6:amd64 package pre-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 2 dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute new libc6:amd64 package post-removal script (/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/postrm): Permission denied dpkg: error while cleaning up: new libc6:amd64 package post-removal script subprocess returned error exit status 2 Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.35-0ubuntu3.6_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I followed these steps to try to fix it: 1. sudo chmod 1777 /var/lib/dpkg/ 2. sudo rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.* 3. sudo dpkg --force-all -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.35-0ubuntu3.6_amd64.deb (to force the instalation without preinstalation scripts) At this point I obtain a similar error 4. Repair unmet dependencies: sudo apt --fix-broken install At this point I obtain a similar error (permission denied) 5. Reboot the system Nothing works Has anyone faced something similar? Please, any help will be apretiated. Thnx Carmen
