Bug Description
# apt get upgrade tells me:
The following packages have been kept back:
zfsutils-linux
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
But I'm pretty sure I need the newer 0.8.1-1ubuntu14 package because the previous version 0.7.12-1ubuntu5 zfs command fails:
zfs: symbol lookup error: zfs: undefined symbol: libzfs_dataset_cmp
When I try to ask for the kept back page to be upgraded:
# apt dist-upgrade -y zfsutils-linux
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
zfsutils-linux : Conflicts: insserv (< 1.18) but 1.14.0-5ubuntu3 is to be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResol
I really don't understand the <1.18 when 1.14.0 looks less than 1.18.
Is there a workaround?
whoa... on a whim, I tried apt-get instead of apt. It seems to have worked.
$ sudo apt-get install zfsutils-linux
I'm filing this bug so that others may find this work around.
I believe this because apt-get update resolved this and it's not a bug per-se with zfs. Thank you for reporting this issue.
