Why does Virtual Box uninstall gnome-terminal?
For some reason, virtual box 5 after installing it from their website uninstalls gnome-terminal
, and when I reinstall gnome-terminal
, it uninstalls virtual box. What's going on?
Also, installing virtualbox
5 also uninstalls software centre.
OS is 14.04 LTS
Reinstalling gnome-terminal after installing Virtual Box 5.0 caused it to be removed:
sudo apt-get install gnome-terminal
The following extra packages will be installed:
gconf2 gnome-terminal-data psmisc
Suggested packages:
gconf-defaults-service
The following packages will be REMOVED
psmic:i386 virtualbox-5.0:i386
The following NEW packages will be installed
gconf2 gnome-terminal gnome-terminal-data psmisc
removing psmisc (22.20-1ubuntu2)
removing virtualbox-5.0 (5.0.10-104061~Ubuntu~trusty)
apologies for the abominable layout and syntax, Because I do not have gnome-terminal any more, I have to use xTerm
which is a huge pain for copying and pasting.
Solution 1:
Problem was caused by downloading the 32 bit version of vitrualbox from the i386 link on the website, instead of the AMD64.
