Aw: [bareos-users] Init-system-helper error on linux filedaemon install

[Andreas Haase]

Hello,

as far as I could find out, your Linux Mint version bases on Ubuntu 14.04. Despite the fact, you should update to a newer version in 2019, you could try to install the bareos packages for xUbuntu 14.04, not the ones for Debian 8. If that does not work, there are other chances to handle this problem. They vary from installation without honoring the dependencies (which I would not recommend) to repackaging bareos with altered dependency specification. But there you would have the risk that something doesn't work correctly.

Regards,
Andreas

I am running the following script to install bareos-common and bareos-filedaemon on my Mint 17.2 64 bit laptop.

Bareos-common installs fine but the filedaemon errs out:



The following packages have unmet dependencies:
bareos-filedaemon : Depends: init-system-helpers (>= 1.18~) but 1.14 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
