Due to s stupid, and actually not needed, dependency, Mainline kernels no longer install completely on a 16.04 server. I don't care, because all I wanted was the Ubuntu kernel configuration anyhow, which I am able to get. When one tries to use linux-purge to get rid of it, the program errors out:
doug@s15:~/temp-git-linux-purge/linux-purge$ sudo ./linux-purge -c
[linux-purge] ERROR: The following kernel packages have invalid state; each
package name is followed by its state:
linux-headers-5.4.0-050400rc8-lowlatency install ok unpacked
(Refer to the documentation of dpkg for explanation of the package states.)
Hint: Run this command with --fix option.
Hint: If a package flag is 'reinst-required' (instead of 'ok') for some
package, you may have to reinstall the package by 'apt-get install --reinstall'.
It would be nice to be able to deal with kernels in such a state. |
