Dear Mark, many thanks: your suggestions did help, in the sense that it looked to think apt-get that the missing packages had been installed, which allowed me to overcome the "unmet dependencies" error. However, after having Koha installed and configured, I couldn't open the browser interface, because of "software errors". After inspection, it turned out that the missing MARC/perl packages had been manually installed in non-standard directories. E.g. dpkg-deb -c libmarc-xml-perl_0.4-1_all.deb drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./home/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./home/<username>/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./home/<username>/perl5/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./home/<username>/perl5/lib/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./home/<username>/perl5/lib/perl5/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./home/<username>/perl5/lib/perl5/MARC/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 33884 2000-04-24 03:36 ./home/<username>/perl5/lib/perl5/MARC/XML.pm drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./home/<username>/perl5/man/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./home/<username>/perl5/man/man3/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 15519 2018-05-05 15:56 ./home/<username>/perl5/man/man3/MARC::XML.3pm drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./usr/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./usr/share/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./usr/share/doc/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 807 2000-01-25 19:26 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/README -rw-r--r-- root/root 141 2018-05-05 15:56 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/changelog.Debian.gz -rw-r--r-- root/root 1791 2018-05-05 15:56 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/copyright drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-05-05 15:56 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/examples/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 807 2000-01-25 19:26 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/examples/README -rw-r--r-- root/root 501 1999-11-22 01:43 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/examples/marc2xml.pl -rw-r--r-- root/root 4077 2000-01-25 20:56 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/examples/pacific.pl -rw-r--r-- root/root 17854 2000-01-18 16:06 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/examples/pacific0.dat.gz -rw-r--r-- root/root 1923 2000-01-25 21:53 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/examples/read_pfa.pl -rw-r--r-- root/root 511 1999-11-23 22:45 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/examples/simple.pl -rw-r--r-- root/root 509 1999-11-22 01:47 ./usr/share/doc/libmarc-xml-perl/examples/xml2marc.pl where <username> is my own home directory.

Hi,
I am trying to migrate my Koha installation from an Ubuntu 16.04 LTS "Xenial" [virtual] machine to a new machine, running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS "Bionic Beaver".
Immediately after issuing the installation command:
sudo apt-get install koha-common
I get the error:
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: koha-common : Depends: libmarc-charset-perl but it is not installable Depends: libmarc-xml-perl but it is not installable
Indeed, these two dependencies are not [yet] implemented for Ubuntu 18.04, as of https://packages.ubuntu.com .
Any suggestion?
Many thanks.

Successful update: After removing all hand-rebuilt packages and koha-common itself, I tried downloading the last versions of libmarc-charset-perl and libmarc-xml-perl available for Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial). I had to install first sudo apt-get install libmarc-record-perl which was a dependency for one of the above, then: sudo dpkg -i libmarc-charset-perl_1.35-2_amd64.deb libmarc-xml-perl_1.0.3-1_all.deb and eventually sudo apt-get install koha-common Leaving all the configuration which I had performed before removing Koha (i.e. everything in /etc/koha/sites/myinstancename , /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs , and of course the database itself; nothing of these were in fact affected by my sudo apt-get remove koha-common, as I had deliberately avoided to koha-remove any existing instance), and performing a rebuild and restart of the Zebra services: sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -f -v myinstancename sudo koha-restart-zebra myinstancename it seems that Koha 17.11.05.000 is working on Ubuntu 18.04 . I wonder at this point whether future updates will be consistently dealt with by apt-get ... Many thanks! Giuseppe. On Sun, 6 May 2018, Giuseppe Angilella wrote:

If there are dependencies that are no longer available in newer versions of Debian, then they'll be added to the Koha apt repository, I reckon.
