I am running PHP 7.2 on an Apache server on Ubuntu, and I need to add the PHP SoapClient. However, when I try to install it using apt-get, I get the following error:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
php7.2-soap : Depends: php7.2-common (= 7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2) but 7.2.26-1+ubuntu19.04.1+deb.sury.org+1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I've tried the following before reattempting:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get upgrade-dist
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo dpkg --configure -a
If it helps, when I run uname -r the output is
5.0.0-37-generic
Thanks in advance!
After a looooong time tackling this issue I finally got my head around it and found a solution :)
It seems the issue is I was using the ppa:ondrej/apache2 PPA which was installing the latest version of a selection of PHP packages, which at the time of writing is using PHP7.2.27. As far as I can tell, the most up-to-date version of the php7.2-soap package is for php7.2.24, meaning there is an unmet dependency for the php7.2-common package provided by the PPA.
So, the solution was to remove the PPA and downgrade the PHP packages. Here's a step by step for any poor souls who might encounter a similar issue:
First, if not already installed, install aptitude sudo apt-get install aptitude
Next, install ppa-purge:
mkdir ppa-purge && cd ppa-purge && wget http://mirror.pnl.gov/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/ppa-purge/ppa-purge_0.2.8+bzr56_all.deb && wget http://mirror.pnl.gov/ubuntu//pool/main/a/aptitude/aptitude_0.6.6-1ubuntu1_i386.deb && sudo dpkg -i ./*.deb
(I ran this in my user folder, i.e. ~/
Then I remove the PPA with the following commands:
sudo ppa-purge ppa:ondrej/apache2
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:ondrej/apache2
sudo apt-get autoclean
Now we need to downgrade the dependencies. First I determined which version I needed. The package that was causing the unmet dependency was php7.2-common, so I ran sudo apt list -a php7.2-common. I chose the version which matched the original error message, in this case, 7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2.
So you are able to install a specific version by following the package with a = then a version number. If you, like me, are working on a live server, I'm going to shout this next bit about the next command you will write:
DO NOT USE THE -y TAG!!
CHOOSE "NO" WHEN IT ASKS YOU IF YOU WANT TO CONTINUE!!
If you do any of these, it will automatically remove any dependencies for php7.2-common and the PHP stop working on your site.
To determine which dependencies we need to update along with php7.2-common, I ran sudo apt-get install php7.2-common=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2. It then showed me a list of other packages it would remove as well. I copied these dependencies then chose 'n' to cancel the install.
Next, I put the copied list into a text editor and used it to create the following script:
sudo apt-get install php7.2-common=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
libapache2-mod-php7.2=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-bcmath=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-bz2=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-cgi=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-cli=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-curl=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-dev=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-enchant=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-fpm=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-gd=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-imap=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-intl=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-json=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-ldap=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-mbstring=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-mysql=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-odbc=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-opcache=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-pspell=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-readline=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-tidy=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-xml=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-xmlrpc=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2 \
php7.2-zip=7.2.24-0ubuntu0.19.04.2
Finally, I ran this command. Instead of warning me about removing the packages, it warned me that these packages would be "downgraded", which is fine. I pressed Y and it reinstalled all the packages and viola! I was then able to install php7.2-soap :)

I have a similar issue one month ago with a Debian 9 and PHP 7 Did you consider to upgrade your PHP to the latest stable version before installing the PHP Client ?

I just wanted to test something out real quick. So I ran a docker container and I wanted to check which version I was running:
$ docker run -it ubuntu
root#471bdb08b11a:/# lsb_release -a
bash: lsb_release: command not found
root#471bdb08b11a:/#
So I tried installing it (as suggested here):
root#471bdb08b11a:/# apt install lsb_release
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package lsb_release
root#471bdb08b11a:/#
Anybody any idea why this isn't working?
It seems lsb_release is not installed.
you can install it via
apt-get update && apt-get install -y lsb-release && apt-get clean all
This error can happen due to uninstalling or upgrading the default python3 program version in ubuntu 16.04
The way to correct this is by reinstalling the original python3 version which comes with ubuntu and relinking again. (in ubuntu 16.04 - the default python3 version is python 3.5
sudo rm /usr/bin/python3
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python3.5 /usr/bin/python3
Just use cat /etc/os-release and that should display the OS details.
Screenshot from debian.
Screenshot from ubuntu.
Screenshot from fedora.
lsb_release.py lives in /usr/share/pyshared which to me doesn't look like python3.6 and above is referencing.
I found the following will create a link back from a later Python install to this /usr/share script:
sudo ln -s /usr/share/pyshared/lsb_release.py /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/lsb_release.py
In case one is trying to deal with lsb_release: command not found on fedora or redhat, the package to install is redhat-lsb-core , so sudo dnf install redhat-lsb-core
While writing Dockerfile we can add lsb-release package - like this
RUN apt-get update -y \
&& apt-get upgrade -y \
&& apt-get install lsb-release -y \
&& apt-get clean all
Assuming OS is Ubuntu.
I am trying to build a Dockerfile that can make use of Azure functions. After unsuccessfully trying to build it using alpine:3.9 because of library issues, I swapped to ubuntu:18.04. Now I have a problem in that I can't install nvm (node version manager) in such a way that I can install node. My Dockerfile is below. I have managed to install nvm but now, while trying to use nvm, I cannot install the node version I want. The problem probably has to do with refreshing the shell but that is tricky to do as it appears that Docker continues to use the original shell it entered to run the next build stages. Any suggestions on how to refresh the shell so nvm can work effectively?
FROM ubuntu:18.04
RUN apt update && apt upgrade -y && apt install -qq -y --no-install-recommends \
python-pip \
python-setuptools \
wget \
build-essential \
libssl-dev
RUN pip install azure-cli
RUN wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.0/install.sh | bash
RUN . /root/.nvm/nvm.sh && nvm install 10.14.1 && node
ENTRYPOINT ["/bin/bash"]
After install nvm command put:
SHELL ["/bin/bash", "--login" , "-c"]
RUN nvm install 17
SHELL ["/bin/sh", "-c"]
Default shell is sh and first command switches it to bash. Parameter --login is required as you want to source .bashrc.
As all subsequent commands would be executed with changed shell it's good to switch it back to sh if you don't need it anymore.
You usually don't need version managers like nvm in a Docker image. Since a Docker image packages only a single application, and since it has its own isolated filesystem, you can just install the single version of Node you need.
The first thing I'd try is to just install whatever version of Node the standard Ubuntu package has (in Ubuntu 18.04, looks like 8.11). While there are some changes between Node versions, for the most part the language and core library have been pretty stable.
RUN apt update && apt-install nodejs
Or, if you need something newer, there are official Debian packages:
RUN curl -sSL https://deb.nodesource.com/gpgkey/nodesource.gpg.key | apt-key add - \
&& echo "deb https://deb.nodesource.com/node_10.x cosmic main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list \
&& apt update \
&& apt install nodejs
This will give you a current version of that major version of Node (as of this writing, 10.15.1).
If you really need that specific version of Node, there are official binary packages. I might write:
FROM ubuntu:18.04
ARG node_version=10.14.1
RUN apt-get update \
&& DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive \
apt-get install --no-install-recommends --assume-yes \
ca-certificates \
curl \
xz-utils
RUN cd /usr/local \
&& curl -o- https://nodejs.org/dist/v${node_version}/node-v${node_version}-linux-x64.tar.xz \
| tar xJf - --strip 1
...where the last couple of lines unpack the Node tarball directly into /usr/local.
I want to install netstat on my Docker container.
I looked here https://askubuntu.com/questions/813579/netstat-or-alternative-in-docker-ubuntu-server-16-04-container so I'm trying to install it like this:
apt-get install net-tools
However, I'm getting:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package net-tools
So how can I install netstat?
You need to run apt-get update first to download the current state of the package repositories. Docker images do not include this to save space, and because they'd likely be outdated when you use it. If you are doing this in a Dockerfile, make sure to keep it as a single RUN command so that caching of the layers doesn't cache an old version of the update command with a new package install request:
RUN apt-get update \
&& DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y \
net-tools \
&& apt-get clean \
&& rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
netstat is provided by the net-tools package,net-tools is probably not installed by default in the Docker image for Ubuntu 16.04 to keep the image size as small as possible.
Execute the following commands inside docker container:
apt update
apt install net-tools
I'm trying to install Hue on Ubuntu 14, it displays this :

anyone have an idea.
thanks
This installation script worked for me.

git clone https://github.com/cloudera/hue.git
cd hue

If you are behind a proxy server, make sure you set your environment variables correctly when installing oracle-java7 or any other package outside the repository.
Seems the repository doesn`t contain such package.

You could try to use the Lucid 12.04 packages: http://archive.cloudera.com/cdh5/one-click-install/precise/amd64/
The Trusty 14.04 are coming up in less than a month in CDH5.2.
I followed some instructions to install node.js on a Linux server and ran in to the following blocks. I started out by doing sudo apt-get install python-software-properties and that worked fine. Then, I did sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js. But, wait - there is no command add-apt-repository. OK, so I looked it up and it told me to do apt-get install software-properties-common and that would have been fine, except it gave me this error:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package software-properties-common
Well, what can I do to get node.js on my server? Obviously, none of this works and it's Debian, in case you were wondering. I really need help on this. Basically, how can I install software-properties-common if it does not exist? It just won't show up.
For a Debian install of the latest node.js, you should follow these instructions, not requiring you to add the PPA:
sudo apt-get install python g++ make checkinstall
mkdir ~/src && cd $_
wget -N http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz
tar xzvf node-latest.tar.gz && cd node-v*
./configure
checkinstall #(remove the "v" in front of the version number in the dialog)
sudo dpkg -i node_*
UPDATE: I wrote this a long time ago. Since then, I find using nvm a much less painful way to get node onto machines. As per link, steps are basically reduced to:
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.0/install.sh | bash
nvm install node
