Hi,

 

I have received an upgrade notification.

While applying changes, I received this message for 1 package (out of 5).

Now, I have 4 packages partially installed and one not installed.

 

I have not rebooted the device.

What should I do?

 

Note: It is on an Orange Pi Lite.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

Jean-Dominique.

I would give 'sudo apt-get install -f' a try and then reboot (see also this)

Still not yet rebooted

I'll try to produce an fix for those troubles tomorrow. In the mean time:

dpkg -r linux-xenial-root-orangepilite
apt-get -f install
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install linux-xenial-root-orangepilite

Thanks for this second response. Something has changed, because we get "which is also in... xenial 5.20" instead of "... pilite 5.16".

But I still get an error.

Also, I wonder why we receive a "get .... pilite 5.16" instead of "pilite 5.20". Are you sure that the correct version is available?

Device still not rebooted.

I just found out that repository is partially broken and I need to rebuilt it. Some files for v5.2 are missing.

Far better with 5.20 :
