[SOLVED] Having trouble installing anything

[czeekaj]

I tried to install open vpn on 9.3.0 Debian

Code: Select all

apt-get install openvpn

said I do not have the packagemanager libpkcs11-helper1
I try to install that and it says it's obsoleted or is not there. Can't figure out the dependencies to manage files like open VPN
I can install the .git file directly from git hub, not sure how to open a git as I can't install Git or Git-core for same reason as above. But with different dependencies liberror-perl

What should I do? I also want FireJail.
I got updates and upgrade, however I have not configured repositories? It's a clean install I not sure on Jessie I just type
apt-get install openvpn and it will be in my /etc/openvpn. Than I install Pia access and it just works.

Maybe post your sources.list?

For me openvpn installs fine (Stretch)

Have you recently done an upgrade? AS ROOT

Code: Select all

apt update
apt full-upgrade
apt install openvpn

I figured out what my problem was. It's working fine now I had the CD still in as my source, I just had to hash it and update the sources list everything is OK now.
Thanks for the help setting me on right track.
