Is it possible to fix dependency issues by reverting to previous package versions?
0
Since I tried to install a package that was trying to overwrite some files used by a service, I then stopped its installation. Now, apt-get purge returns the following message: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libc-dev-bin : Depends: libc6 (> 2.28) but 2.27-3 is to be installed libc6-dev : Depends: libc6 (= 2.28-5) but 2.27-3 is to be installed locales : Depends: libc-bin (> 2.28) but 2.27-3 is to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution). Since, I don't want to update those dependencies, is it possible to restore a previous version of the listed packages until they are okay with the current installed dependencies?
