package system broken Ubuntu 12.04
I have recently installed Ubuntu 12.04. When I try to install updates, it says package system is broken. In detail part, these are reported:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6: Depends: libc-bin (= 2.15-0ubuntu10) but 2.15-0ubuntu10.2 is installed
libc6-dev: Depends: libc6 (= 2.15-0ubuntu10.2) but 2.15-0ubuntu10 is installed
Depends: libc-dev-bin (= 2.15-0ubuntu10.2) but 2.15-0ubuntu10.2 is installed
Based on the suggestion, I issued this command: sudo apt-get -f install
But, it did not solve the problem either. It gave me this output:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Correcting dependencies... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
libc-bin libc-dev-bin libc6 libc6-dev
Suggested packages:
glibc-doc
The following packages will be upgraded:
libc-bin libc-dev-bin libc6 libc6-dev
