After installing a Bluetooth driver, the following error is shown, I have tried everything without any success. Following is the log that it shows when I try to fix it.

I really do not know what to do in order to solve the problem.

  • Welcome to AskUbuntu! Please [edit](https://askubuntu.com/posts/1343902/edit) your question and give us specifics of what you have tried so that we are not guessing or giving you something to try that you already did. Thank you! – Terrance Jun 05 '21 at 16:45
  • Which version of Ubuntu are you using? Some versions contain liblmdb0 in universe while some in main. Probably that is missing from software sources configured. – Kulfy Jun 08 '21 at 15:12

  • Hi Kully, I followed one the steps you suggested on the link you provided:I had a situation worse than this. I had to remove the half-installed packages by forcing dependencies. sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq --force-depends Then I had to reinstall them sudo apt-get -f install. It worked and it looks to solve the problem, but it indicated that I had problems with grup-pc so I remove it, now I cannot enter on my windows partition. Can you help? – Cesar A.

  • @CesarA.Williams Please post a new question with full error logs and the commands you used. – Kulfy Jun 12 '21 at 07:53
