Error in Lite Tweaks - Daveyboy - 04-12-2017

Recently, every time I run Lite Tweaks I now receive "an error has occured" message.


I have run each of the "SAFE" options individually and have determined that the option that is causing this error message is the Autoremove Packages module.


This is a recent occurence and I would appreciate any assistance in resolving this issue before I upgrade to LL 3.4

Try in Terminal:

Code:
sudo apt-get clean all
sudo dpkg --configure -a

Test again.

Hi Ralphy


Did as you suggested and the following message was returned in terminal.


dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of cups-core-drivers:
cups-core-drivers depends on cups-daemon (>= 2.1.3-4ubuntu0.2); however:
  Version of cups-daemon on system is 2.1.3-4.


dpkg: error processing package cups-core-drivers (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
cups-core-drivers


Error message remains in Lite Tweaks

Re: Error in Lite Tweaks - ralphy - 04-12-2017

Ok then. First do:

Code:
sudo apt-get install -f

If that doesn't correct it, do:

Code:
sudo apt-get purge cups
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cups

Hi Ralphy


The Good News - The issue is now resolved the Lite Tweaks  - Thank you

The Bad News - I have now completely lost the ability to print


When I go into printers - localhost menu instead of showing my printer icon (Canon MG5650), It now displays the message Printing services not available. Start the service on this computer or connect to another server.


Start service is greyerd out and if I click on connect I get a cups server error "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'failed to connect to server'." 


UPDATE


Tried sudo apt-get install cups and this returned the following


sudo apt-get install cups

I really have no idea how it broke in the first place. Please try the following:


Code:
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get update

Next command is all one line:

Code:
sudo apt-get install libcups2=2.1.3-4 cups libcupscgi1=2.1.3-4 libcupsimage2=2.1.3-4 libcupsmime1=2.1.3-4 libcupsppdc1=2.1.3-4 cups-core-drivers cups-daemon ghostscript cups-client=2.1.3-4 cups-ppdc cups-filters printer-driver-gutenprint cups-filters

I wouldn't call you as such; that'd be really rude and unnecessary Smile - the fun part in not knowing is that we always get the chance to learn. See:
