Hi All,
I just created testing cluster with two node with the latest Proxmox 5.4 and one ZFS storage. I followed the wiki with the upgrade to the version 6. Everything goes fine except the zfs.

Code: 
he following packages have unmet dependencies:
 zfs-zed : Depends: zfsutils-linux (>= 0.8.1-pve2) but 0.7.13-pve1~bpo2 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

When I tried the apt --fix-broken install I get this issue-
Preparing to unpack .../zfsutils-linux_0.8.1-pve2_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking zfsutils-linux (0.8.1-pve2) over (0.7.13-pve1~bpo2) ...

Is there anyone who had similar issue?


Have a nice day and Best Regards

Thanks for your reply. But it isn't solution (please note for the testing purpose I use the pve-no-subscription repository


Code: 
cat /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster main contrib
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib

# PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
# NOT recommended for production use
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-no-subscription

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org buster/updates main contrib

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 zfs-zed : Depends: zfsutils-linux (>= 0.8.1-pve2) but 0.7.13-pve1~bpo2 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

That's an odd situation - since PVE 6. (all repositories) always had zfsutils-linux in version 0.8.1.

spl-dkms 0.7.12-2
Click to expand...
seems like the zfs-packages from debian upstream are installed on the system (instead of the proxmox packages)

could you post the output of `pveversion -v` and `apt update` ?

also you could try to remove the 'spl-dkms', 'zfs-dkms' packages (PVE does not ship them)

I hope this helps!

1 package can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see it.

The 1 package for update is
libnghttp2-14/oldstable 1.18.1-1+deb9u1 amd64 [upgradable from: 1.18.1-1]


I will try remove 'spl-dkms', 'zfs-dkms' later today

hm - that's a bit confusing?
In your posts before you had buster and pve 6.x repostories in your sources.list files - this output (pveversion and apt update) speak of stretch only?

but - removing 'spl-dkms' and 'zfs-dkms' sound like a good plan.

I hope this helps!

Thanks all for cooperation's. This solved my issue-

apt-get install zfsutils zfs-initramfs

apt purge spl-dkms

I ave to apologize to Stoiko- I have installed it in virtual box with snap hosts- so I can easily revert back and check different approach.

But is it resolved now :-) thanks for all your help

I just dealt with this upgrading my box to 6.0. This thread was helpful, but ultimately it did not provide a full solution.

The full solution, for my case, looked more like this (roughly):

Code: 
# remove packages to make apt stop complaining about conflicts
apt remove spl-dkms zfs-dkms zfs-initramfs zfs-zed
# for me at least, that command also resulted in the PVE upgrade continuing,
# with some caveats:

# zfs still needs to be upgraded
apt install zfsutils-linux

# now reinstall packages needed that we removed above
# at the very least, zfs-initramfs is required or your system won't boot
#
# these should all come from PVE repos
# you may wish to verify that with `apt show` or similar first
apt install zfs-initramfs zfs-zed


# update initramfs manually, update grub, etc - just make sure things are good :)
update-initramfs -u
update-grub
grub-install /dev/dsk/by-id/$your_disk

These commands are the refined version of the mess I went through. I removed the packages, upgraded zfsutils, rebooted, figured out that my initramfs was missing ZFS, booted to an old kernel, then corrected it.

You may also want to update/reinstall grub before rebooting just to be safe (I did).
