Package: libc6
Version: 2.31-4
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
When trying to reinstall all packages with "sudo aptitude reinstall ~i", dpkg
tells that libc6:amd64 is not configured yet which leads to dependency issues
and unconfigured packages for other packages because libc6:amd64 is not
configured.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I tried reinstalling libc6 with sudo apt-get install --reinstall libc6 and
restart the needed services with the "needrestart" package installed. I tried
reinstalling any package that showed the dependency issue error the same way.
Like: "sudo apt-get install --reinstall libc6 libcom-err2 libkrb5support0
libk5crypto3 libkeyutils1 libgcc-s1 libnss-nisplus libcrypt1s"
* What was the outcome of this action?
The same error gets shown after again running the "sudo aptitude reinstall ~i"
command again. Also a libc6 and libgcc-s1 error gets shown after running the
reinstall command with using the "needrestart" feature.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
All packages would be reinstalled due to having some packages reconfigured that
needed to be reconfigured.
