Can't purge package in mintdrivers #26

Closed carlosmintfan closed 1 year ago

carlosmintfan commented 1 year ago

Purging (in test mode) doesn't work and we're removing. The error (you usually don't see it, neither in the gui nor in terminal, but I modified the code so I saw it): 'Task' object has no attribute 'purge_packages_async'

What version of packagekit do you have?

Please run:

dpkg --list | grep packagekit

and

apt policy packagekit

Did you install from the beta iso or do some sort of upgrade?

And the Driver Manager at least sometimes installs mint-dev-pkg when switching to linux-generic, maybe this is only when doing multiple changes without restarting? You can debug this and open a new issue if you want, but wait, I'll look about the purging...

Okay, thanks!

carlosmintfan commented 1 year ago

Reopening. You may look at what I said above with the installing and open a new issue and close this again! :) :)

I appreciate the effort you're making here but please don't submit any more issues based on an upgraded system.

Your second issue is more than likely also caused by an incomplete upgrade, and I'm not going to spend any time on it unless someone reports it based on a fresh iso install.

This issue tracker is specifically for testing the beta iso, and the programs that get installed with it. When you report things like this you only muddy the waters, especially when you don't reveal that you're not running the beta in the first place.

I'd recommend something like virtualbox to create a machine you can install the iso on, if you want to continue testing the beta.
