apt install qemu-utils announce removing proxmox-ve

[Jokerigno]

Hi,

I'm trying to follow this guide (https://www.nicksherlock.com/2022/10/installing-macos-13-ventura-on-proxmox/) without success.

One of the first issue is related to the step "sudo apt install qemu-utils make". When I try I see this message:

root@JARVIS:~# apt install qemu-utils make
Reading package lists... Done

make is already the newest version (4.3-4.1).
make set to manually installed.

Any tip?

Proxmox has to integrate pretty heavily with kvm and stuff, so some packages have been replaced or altered and are not compatible with the debian packages anymore.
Looking at the guide you are following, it seems like you don't have to install qemu-utils and make on proxmox, but on the system you want to build the macOS install iso on. So if your desktop is linux you can use that, or you can just spin up a vm on proxmox to build the iso.

@Folke Gleumes is correct, the guidance is: "dont install random packages directly on your Hypervisor, especially one like PVE which is essentially an appliance like.
