Thanks a lot for you support. I got it right in my face while restarting an old virtual machine Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I have solved the point simply by cleaning apt-get, and than removing fpc-util_xxx. I don’t remember exactly which package it was about, it is mentioned in the error message. I want to play with image processing, following Adrian at Pyimagesearch. It seems that I have all that is needed : A Mac, VirtualBox with an Ubuntu VM, good glasses and good typewriting abilities ! Once again, thank you, all the best to you, Thierry Jeanneret > Le 1 mai 2017 à 20:46, Paul Gevers <1687...@bugs.launchpad.net> a écrit : > > *** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1568072 *** > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1568072 > > Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make > Ubuntu better.
