Ubuntu 16.04 损坏的内核包不允许我使用 apt-get 安装或删除任何东西

Question

每当我尝试使用 apt-get 执行任何操作时，无论是安装、删除、清除、更新还是升级，我总是遇到相同的错误。

我尝试关注这个问题，但没有成功： Apt 无法删除部分安装的内核并且无法安装任何其他软件包

检查 dpkg 状态文件，我看到两个软件包都安装了一半

Package: linux-image-extra-4.4.0-38-generic
Status: deinstall ok half-installed
Priority: optional
Section: kernel
Installed-Size: 158607
Maintainer: Ubuntu Kernel Team <kernel-team@lists.ubuntu.com>
Architecture: amd64
Source: linux
Version: 4.4.0-38.57
Depends: linux-image-4.4.0-38-generic, crda | wireless-crda
Description: Linux kernel extra modules for version 4.4.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP
 This package contains the Linux kernel extra modules for version 4.4.0 on
 64 bit x86 SMP.
 .
 Also includes the corresponding System.map file, the modules built by the
 packager, and scripts that try to ensure that the system is not left in an
 unbootable state after an update.
 .
 Supports Generic processors.
 .
 Geared toward desktop and server systems.
 .
 You likely do not want to install this package directly. Instead, install
 the linux-generic meta-package, which will ensure that upgrades work
 correctly, and that supporting packages are also installed.

按照 user.dz 的说明手动删除内核包后 paste.ubuntu.com/23487716

同时在 sudo apt-get install -f Ubuntu 期间提醒我系统错误

注意：正如 ChaiT.Rex 在下面评论的那样，只需执行步骤 4 和 5 即可解决问题。

我为可能需要手动删除某些软件包的任何人留下了第 1、2 和 3 步的文档。但首先尝试这个https://askubuntu.com/a/490677/26246看起来更容易。

1. 手动删除它们，如果您重新键入以下命令，请小心，rm -rf当它以 root 身份运行时，这是一个危险的命令。

   sudo rm -rf /lib/modules/4.4.0-38-generic /lib/modules/4.4.0-42-generic
   sudo rm -rf /usr/share/doc/linux-image-extra-4.4.0-38-generic /usr/share/doc/linux-image-extra-4.4.0-42-generic
   sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-extra-4.4.0-38-generic* /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-extra-4.4.0-42-generic*
   

2. 在 dpkg 状态文件中更改它们的状态。

   做好备份以防万一

   sudo cp /var/lib/dpkg/status /var/lib/dpkg/status.backup0
   

   查找相关条目（具有预期输出的命令，行号会有所不同）：

   ~$ grep -n -e "linux-image-extra-4.4.0-38-generic" -e "linux-image-extra-4.4.0-42-generic" /var/lib/dpkg/status
   18488:Package: linux-image-extra-4.4.0-42-generic
   77123:Package: linux-image-extra-4.4.0-38-generic
   

   打开状态文件进行编辑和更改包状态：

   sudo nano +18488 /var/lib/dpkg/status
   

   从：

   Package: linux-image-extra-4.4.0-38-generic
   Status: install ok installed
   

   到：

   Package: linux-image-extra-4.4.0-38-generic
   Status: deinstall ok config-files
   

   Ctrl+o保存。Ctrl+x退出。

   对 linux-image-extra-4.4.0-42-generic 进行相同的更改。

3. 手动删除 linux-image-4.4.0-38-generic 和 linux-image-4.4.0-42-generic

   sudo rm -f *4.4.0-38-generic *4.4.0-42-generic
   sudo rm -rf /usr/share/doc/linux-image-4.4.0-38-generic /usr/share/doc/linux-image-4.4.0-42-generic
   

   与之前相同，将其状态编辑为 deinstall ok config-files

   $ grep -n -e "Package: linux-image-4.4.0-38-generic" -e "Package: linux-image-4.4.0-42-generic" /var/lib/dpkg/status
   61217:Package: linux-image-4.4.0-38-generic
   98051:Package: linux-image-4.4.0-42-generic
   

4. 删除那个麻烦的 virtualbox 文件

   sudo rm /etc/kernel/postinst.d/vboxadd
   

5. 更新 dpkg 状态和 grub 菜单

   sudo dpkg --audit
   sudo apt-get install -f
   sudo update-grub
