Could not select 'OK' in mysql-apt-config [Ubuntu 14.04]
I am using Ubuntu 14.04. sudo apt-get update always give me this option to configure mysql-apt-config.
I am have tried to select the version, press 'tab' -> key highlighted on 'OK', press 'Enter' but nothing happens. It goes back again highlighting the version number.
Software Updater also crashes at mysql-apt-config.
Any idea on what is causing this problem and how to get rid of it? Thx.
Answer
When you can't do
apt-get purge mysql-apt-config
because you're trapped: It won't execute because dpkg is interrupted, and "sudo dpkg --configure -a" backs you to the broken "configuring mysql-apt-config" screen...
edit: /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-apt-config.postinst
add exit at the beginning , then get rid of the package :
sudo dpkg --configure mysql-apt-config
sudo apt-get remove mysql-apt-config
