hi,
there might be a misconfiguration in your apt lists.
 
Hello @oguz thanks for your feedback.

you probably want to do an apt dist-upgrade instead of an apt upgrade. it's never let me down and it's also what folks more knowledgeable than me will tell you to do. :)

Upgrade ensures that packages aren't removed or if they cause the upgrade of another package won't be upgraded.

dist-upgrade will ensure that packages will get upgraded but perhaps at the cost (risk) of removing others.
 
You know, I think I ran into this problem as well. It’s been a while. Looking back through my apt history and it looks like I did have this problem.

My logs indicate that I must have removed the curl package and then installed the curl package after.

while I do see the apt install curl I don’t see where I removed it, but I must have.

i don't think that's the cause of the problem here, but you should remove the corosync-3 stretch repository in any case.

to solve the issue at hand, you can probably just do apt install curl like the others have suggested.
 
did you try to install them manually like suggested in the previous post?
 
@oguz das habe ich gemacht ja

# apt install -f curl

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
curl : Depends: libcurl4 (= 7.64.0-4) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
 
try both at the same time: apt install -f curl libcurl4

there seems to be package conflicts in your system, that's why the upgrade isn't working as expected. however i cannot reproduce this issue here, so it definitely has to do with something you did before. maybe a manually installed package, or something like that?
