Problem with apt-get upgrade

[StupidCrows]

Heres output from

dpkg -i –force-overwrite framework3

dpkg: error processing –force-overwrite (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing framework3 (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:

framework3

I'm wondering if its a problem with the package itself. Lets try using synaptic.
fresh start.

apt-get purge framework3
rm -rf /opt/framework3/
make sure kill postgres if running.
apt-get  autoremove
apt-get autoclean
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist-upgrade -y

If the error still shows up lets open synaptic and try from there.

If you haven't installed it

apt-get install synaptic

at command type synaptic, in search box type framework3 and if it is "installed" right click it and hit mark for complete removal. Once that is done and it is removed right click it again and hit mark for installation and click green checkmark. Hope that works. Latest version should be 3.7.2-bt0 I believe.

THANK YOU I WOULD LIKE TO BUMP THIS AND CAN SAY THAT IT WORKED 100%

also i would like to add that i installed the framework3 source package this time which could have something to do with it.

I tried everything in this thread, but those steps fixed it form e StupidCrows. Thanks! I think this all started because postgres failed to stop during the initial "apt-get upgrade", and the update didn't cleanly fail.

also tried everything posted here...still same problem.
best do what nktoz recommended:

Replied to thread already, didn't appear, here it is again.

This worked for me:

1) After a fresh installation of BT5 KDE 32Bit, prevent apt to update metasploit by:

echo "framework3 hold" | dpkg --set-selections

2) Upgrade all packages except metasploit

apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade

3) Update metasploit

msfupdate

Hope this helps.

this way your system will be up to date. worked for me. thx nktoz

there is also a bug report
