dpkg: Permission denied when trying to create /var/lib/dpkg/status-old #70

Open ghost opened 7 years ago

ghost commented 7 years ago

Trying to install wine the installation fails, promting me to run spkg --configure -a, even when run with as sudo I get a permissioned denied error.

The exact string is "dpkg: error: error creating new backup file '/var/lib/dpkg/status-old': Permission denied"

same problem, hoping for an answer

The app does not work with Android 6.0 and newer, this is a known error. I don't know when I'll have time to update the app, and also I don't have any device with Android 6.

I know that I really shouldn't be saying this, I had been really enjoying the app and I appreciate that you all are doing the developments but wouldn't it also work on an emulator?

What can I do to help out, I have a note 5 that I can share in teamviewer/ssh if that would "help the cause" I try to apt-get update and I get this exact issue - (ignore unneeded login) https://1drv.ms/i/s!AsBlZbBf72iNoL45fQQykES7pVqXUg (screenshot @pelya https://1drv.ms/i/s!AsBlZbBf72iNoL48b71DTWWOgnhKCw)

I got this error when I installed Safari on Linux. " Could not find Wine Gecko. HTML rendering will be disabled. it looks like wine32 is missing, you should install it. multiarch needs to be enabled first. as root, please execute "dpkg --add-architecture i386 && apt-get update && apt-get install wine32" Could not find Wine Gecko. HTML rendering will be disabled. wine: configuration in L"/home/..../.wine" has been updated. it looks like wine32 is missing, you should install it. multiarch needs to be enabled first. as root, please execute "dpkg --add-architecture i386 && apt-get update && apt-get install wine32" 0037:err:module:__wine_process_init L"Z:\home\,,,\SafariSetup" not supported on this system tvcvt@kalilinux:~$ dpkg --add-architecture i386 dpkg: error: unable to create new file '/var/lib/dpkg/arch-new': Permission denied I tried another way, instead of installing Wine, I installed PlayOnLinux. And this is what I did: tvcvt@kalilinux:~$ sudo apt install playonlinux Reading package lists... Done ..... Open Application and you will see PlayonLinux, and install. Then search for the app you need. I believe it is also very interesting to you.
