Estou usando o Ubuntu 10.04. Eu herdei esta configuração de um funcionário anterior que deveria estar administrando esta máquina, então não posso lhe dizer o que aconteceu na preparação para este problema.
Basicamente, o dpkg é de alguma forma quebrado além de qualquer função, ele não pode fazer nada. Consequentemente, todos os vários wrappers para o dpkg também falharam. Vamos dar um exemplo muito simples como apt-get install vim .
apt-get install vim

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
Sim, tentei apt-get if install e, previsivelmente, não fez nada útil
apt-get install -f

E: Could not perform immediate configuration on already unpacked 'libattr1'.Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details.
E sim, tentei apt-get install -o APT::Immediate-Configure=false -f , o que resulta no erro:
E: Couldn't configure pre-depend perl-base for liblocale-gettext-perl, probably a dependency cycle.
E sim, tentei todos os tipos de apt-get clean apt-get autoclean apt-get update e apt-get upgrade todos sem resultados úteis.
Eu também inspecionei o arquivo sources.list e ele parece saudável para minha versão do Ubuntu.
Minhas observações: Algo está muito errado, porque está falhando em reconhecer que muitos pacotes já estão instalados. Bash, por exemplo, está definitivamente instalado. Então é perl. Então é adduser ... e quando tentei usar o aptitude para consertar o problema, a interface do aptitude relatou que um dos pacotes recém-instalados que iria instalar era o aptitutde. De qualquer forma, previsivelmente, o aptitude falhou.
Então, qual é o meu próximo curso de ação aqui?
