apt-get
does not work the first time but works the second time.
I installed ntp
like:
apt-get -q -y install ntp=1:4.2.6.p3+dfsg-1ubuntu3.1
It failed saying:
WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
libcap2 libopts25 ntp
E: There are problems and -y was used without --force-yes
Afterwards I ran:
apt-key update
and ran the same commad with --force-yes
:
apt-get -q -y --force-yes install ntp=1:4.2.6.p3+dfsg-1ubuntu3.1
Thereafter running apt-get purge
and reinstalling, ntp
runs.
apt-get purge libcap2 libopts25 ntp
apt-get -q -y install ntp=1:4.2.6.p3+dfsg-1ubuntu3.1
Also I created a fresh VM and could not reproduce the issue. On a fresh VM, the same apt-get
command runs the first time, without --force-yes
.
Two questions, why does running apt-get
work the second time and cannot reproduce the error?
