Is `dpkg-reconfigure --all` still available in 16.04?
After upgrading to 16.04, I tried to use that command, but it seems that dpkg-reconfigure
(or dpkg --reconfigure
) doesn't understand the option --all
.
Is it still available? If not, is there an equivalent command?
Not equivalent, but probably what you are looking for if you want to be sure, everything is at least somehow configured:
dpkg --configure -a
You can try this script:
(
for i in `dpkg -l | grep '^ii' | awk '{print $2}'`; do
echo $i; sudo dpkg-reconfigure $i;
done
) 2>&1 | tee dpkg-reconfigure.log
It reconfigures all installed packages and saves the log to dpkg-reconfigure.log
file.
