How to install on Debian buster #492

Open kopax opened 3 years ago

My end goal is to dump a Microsoft MSSQL database from Linux Debian.

I have following the Debian installation guide without success, apt-get install -f does not install required dependencies:

dka@dka:[~]: sudo apt-get install mssql-cli
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 mssql-cli : Depends: libicu52 but it is not installable or
                      libicu55 but it is not installable or
                      libicu57 but it is not installable or

How can I dump a MSSQL server to any format from LINUX?

Thank you.

Please update libicu to a modern version. Debian 9 supports libicu63 as a minimum.
