However, maybe tomorrow ... sudo ldconfig returns nothing at all. sudo dpkg --configure -a dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of iptables-persistent: iptables-persistent depends on netfilter-persistent (= 1.0.20); however: Package netfilter-persistent is not installed. ufw (0.36.2-1) breaks iptables-persistent and is installed. dpkg: error processing package iptables-persistent (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: iptables-persistent sudo dpkg --configure --force-depends -a dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of iptables-persistent: iptables-persistent depends on netfilter-persistent (= 1.0.20); however: Package netfilter-persistent is not installed. ufw (0.36.2-1) breaks iptables-persistent and is installed. dpkg: error processing package iptables-persistent (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: iptables-persistent I actually use ufw.
