Apt-get dependency issue

WD Legacy Products My Book Live
1

Hi

I am trying to install this fix for Sickbeard. -  https://github.com/SiCKRAGETV/sickrage-issues/issues/1566

However, it means I need to install gcc

Whenever I try and do anything with apt-get I get this:

MyBookLive:~# apt-get purge
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libc6-ppc64: Depends: libc6 (= 2.13-38+deb7u6) but 2.11.2-2 is installed
  locales: Depends: glibc-2.13-1
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

I have tried doing apt-get -f install but it fails like this:

MyBookLive:~# apt-get -f install

I haven’t try this.

Let’s see what other users can share with you about this case.

I don’t think this works at all.

WD does not allow us.

I tried upgrading OpenVPN in the past.

It is not a question of WD allowing you. If you have root access, you can do anything.

However, you are asking for things WD does not support. So continue under your own if you wish to do so…

Most NAS devices, regardless of brand/vendor/manufacturer, are some flavor of Linux. However, it is not a full blown version but a light version. That means, not all programs for Linux will work by default. However, you can either find the ones specific to the “light version” per model, or compile the package yourself.

MBL runs Debian Lenny.

To compile your own packages see:
