Just reinstalled on fresh debian 10 install. I get the following error:

Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/pve-guests.service → /lib/systemd/system/pve-guests.service.
Job for pvestatd.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status pvestatd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of proxmox-ve:
proxmox-ve depends on pve-manager; however:

Strange. I did a new install:

# dpkg --configure -a
dpkg: warning: 'ldconfig' not found in PATH or not executable
dpkg: warning: 'start-stop-daemon' not found in PATH or not executable
dpkg: error: 2 expected programs not found in PATH or not executable
Note: root's PATH should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin and /sbin
 
That helps thank you.

Then I needed to comment out one entry in /etc/hosts to be able to run dpkg --configure -a

127.0.0.1 localhost
#127.0.1.1 proxmox.lan proxmox
192.168.100.58 proxmox

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
