[SOLVED] I have a problem removing a package called flash-kernel
by tuxthegreat from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5S5F6)
This is for an Odroid-c2 I was attempting to update the kernel and one of the required packages was flash-kernel. During the install process, in Synaptic package manager an error occurred and it could not finish installing flash-kernel. It's listed as installed in Synaptic package manager but when I try to use apt-get to update or install something, thee flash-kernel error pops up Code:Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 10, in <module>
KeyError: 'status'
Setting up flash-kernel (3.98ubuntu11~18.04.2) ...
flash-kernel: deferring update (trigger activated)
Processing triggers for man-db (2.8.3-2ubuntu0.1) ...
Processing triggers for flash-kernel (3.98ubuntu11~18.04.2) ...
Unsupported platform.
dpkg: error processing package flash-kernel (--configure):
installed flash-kernel package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
flash-kernel
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)I gathered that I installed flash-kernel on an Unsupported platform which is why it's giving me issues. When I remove flash-kernel via apt-get and reboot the Odroid, it's back in it's place as if I never removed it. So I am stuck with a broken package which I can't remove. Any help is appreciated.
