[SOLVED] Proxmox 8.1 Upgrade Issue

[james_h]

I used "apt upgrade" on a fully functioning promox host that is part of a cluster, and have caused an issue.

I appreciate now I should have used "apt-get dist-upgrade" but upon running this command now I have unmet dependancies.

you could add an "exit 0" after the "set .." line at the top of /var/lib/dpkg/info/pve-manager.postinst and retry. if that looks okay, please run "apt clean; apt install --reinstall pve-manager" afterwards.

can you post the following?

dpkg -l "*perl*" | grep '^ii'

it will probably be a long list, please post it in CODE tags (not ICODE) or attach it as file
