You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mc : Depends: mc-data (= 3:4.8.25-1) but 3:4.8.27-1 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
I have tried to apt --fix-broken install with no luck. i have tried to hold the package with apt-mark hold mc mc-data but it just keeps trying to update this
i noticed that the file reference returned in the output uses a colon in the file name but the file listed in the /var/cacke/apt/archives is mc_3%3ar.8.27-1_amd64.deb
when i just try to install the dpkg i get :
Preparing to unpack mc_3:3a4.8.27-1_amd64.deb ...
dpkg: error processing archive mc_3:3a4.8.27-1_amd64.deb (--install):
conffile name 'remove-on-upgrade /etc/mc/edit.spell.rc' is not an absolute pathname
Errors were encountered while processing:
mc_3:3a4.8.27-1_amd64.deb
any help? thanks in advance.
