[SOLVED] gpsd post installation failure

[arzgi]

Debian 9.5, XFCE

After installing gpsd, I get this error message every time I install some package:

Code: Select all

gpsd is working anyway. How to get rid of that error?

Did you check journalctl -xe for details?

Yes, I did.

Code: Select all

- The result is failed.

Found it! gpsd requires loopback to be IPV6 enabled.

Wonders of systemd, dependency broken...
