Cannot remove OpenMPI, Need to for update

[geklmintendont]

I cannot remove OpenMPI and I supposedly need to for the full-upgrade.


Here's the error message that Synaptic gives back (I tried through apt also):

Code Auswählen Erweitern

E: libopenmpi-dev: 25.0000:installed libopenmpi-dev:amd64 package post-removal script subprocess returned error exit status 1
E: libopenmpi3: 50.0000:installed libopenmpi3:amd64 package post-removal script subprocess returned error exit status 1
E: openmpi-common: installed openmpi-common package post-removal script subprocess returned error exit status 1





I'm very worried. What are my options? My oldest backup makes this error, so I can't load a backup.

[dibl]

As root at tty1, X server closed:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt purge libopenmpi-dev

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt purge libopenmpi3

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt purge openmpi-common

Code Auswählen Erweitern

dpkg --configure -a

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt update && apt full-upgrade

[piper]

if the above don't work, try

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt purge libopenmpi.

Don't forget the period !!!

Then do

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt autoremove

and

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt update; apt install -fy

Any errors post them, if it's like your other post, I for one won't respond

Why you are still getting this error means you don't do a full-upgrade often enough.

If you want to continue using siduction (sid), you must full-upgrade often, at least once a week, 2 weeks tops, your errors are old and have been fixed awhile ago.

Hint: Stop using synaptic in sid, it will break your system sooner or later.

I'm having the same problem. How do I close the X server, and is it really necessary to remove OpenMPI? Sorry, I'm sort of new to this.

I tried your solution piper and this is what it did:

Your only allowed to login not because you changed your ip address (that means nothing, you can change that all day) its because who owns your internet (windstream.net/TierPoint) that you can't change, this is a last  "warning"

are you talking to me? Because I have windstream. What am I being warned for? Whatever it is, I'm sorry, i'm new to this forum. I'm sorry, forgive me.


thanks for the help btw, I did eventually figure out what to do. there was a faulty line in the postrm script for openmpi-common and libopenmpi3. If you want to fix it, I have a solution posted in my thread under upgrade warnings. You'll have to get dirty with vim but you guys look like you know everything.


Thanks for the help though

Just please don't take the readers/users in this forum for complete idiots. Better keep the past behind without further arguing, really. Use the chance, move forward.
