Fix libwacom Library Issues During Upgrades on Kali
Steps to issue reproduction:
~ sudo apt update
then trying to view packages that might need an upgrade
~ sudo apt list — upgradable
attempting to upgrade the packages that optionally need an upgrade:
~ sudo apt upgrade
After an attempt of the above command, an error arises, “Error: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libwacom9: Depends: libwacom-common (= 2.2.0–1) but 1.12–1 is to be installed. E: Broken packages”
How to resolve the issue and upgrade the packages:
To resolve the issue, output error has the solution(install dependant module — libwacom-common). Simply type in the below command to do so:
~ sudo apt install libwacom-common
Then finalize your second upgrade attempt by:
~ sudo apt upgrade
All the errors will have gone and your upgrade process will complete without any issue.
