init-system-helpers (>= 1.18~) but it is not going to be installed #48

Open ctar opened 7 years ago

ctar commented 7 years ago

I saw the closed issue on dependencies, but I couldn't follow all the threads. I have what I think is a fully updated raspberry pi 2 that is giving me these init-system-helpers errors. I also saw the note about 0.11 not being the latest, but AFAICT I'm getting 0.18 when I apt-get (based on an apt-cache show) Greatly appreciated if you have any suggestions/pointers.

I just took a Raspberry Pi 3 with 2016-11-25-raspbian-jessie-12-31-comitup.img (which is just the latest Raspbian with some extra networking packages installed), did an apt-get dist-upgrade, then did the cloudprint install procedure. It installed fine. the 'init-system-helpers' dependency was satisfied before the cloudprint install.

# dpkg --list | grep init-system-helpers ii init-system-helpers 1.22 all helper tools for all init systems

I don't know what your situation is.

Note that 0.18 is not a valid choice for the cloudprint packages.

Did you replace systemd?

init-system-helpers 1.18 is in the raspberry pi repository, referenced in /etc/apt/sources.d/raspi.list. The Jessie raspbian version is 1.22. In either case, it should already be installed

Could you try:

dpkg --list | grep init-system-helpers
sudo apt-get -o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=yes install cloudprint-service

BTW, it appears you can work around the problem by manually installing init-system-helpers.
