Ubuntu 20.04 and OneDrive
Help Please! I am in the process of establishing my OneDrive connection to my Ubuntu 20.04.2 server. After installing the dependencies, I then attempted to unpack and run a binary file using the following command:
sudo dpkg -i dmd_2.093.1-0_amd64.deb
I received the following output:
(Reading database ... 150962 files and directories currently installed.)

What can I do to eliminate the install errors? What have I missed?
You previously installed the dub 1.26.0-0
package, which contained /usr/bin/dub
. How?
Your attempt to install dmd
from the .deb
file also contained /usr/bin/dub
(same? different?), so dpkg
didn't overwrite the original /usr/bin/dub
.
Read the error message.
Uninstall dub
and try again.
Rather than downloading .deb
files from unofficial sources, I suggest that you use Ubuntu packages. Read man apt apt-get apt-cache synaptic
.
