Hi everyone,
I ran an upgrade like I usually do and saw an update for pve-kernel so I went through.
I didn't understood what happen but now here's what I got:

apt full-upgrade:
root@pve:~# apt full-upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies: E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

apt --fix-broken install:

root@pve:~# apt --fix-broken install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies... Done The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: proxmox-archive-keyring pve-headers-5.15.39-4-pve Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them. The following packages will be REMOVED: proxmox-ve pve-kernel-5.15 pve-kernel-5.15.53-1-pve 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 3 to remove and 0 not upgraded. 7 not fully installed or removed. After this operation, 41.0 kB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Y W: (pve-apt-hook) !! WARNING !! W: (pve-apt-hook) You are attempting to remove the meta-package 'proxmox-ve'!

I really don't know what to do, I search the entire forum for this and every post seems to be very situation specific.

Can someone help me on that ?
