Can't install intel-oneapi-dpcpp-debugger-10.0-beta09 on Ubuntu 18.04

[nesavi]

After running and trying to install updates via "Software updater" i receive the following error message:

"intel-oneapi-dpcpp-debugger-10.0-beta09: Depends: intel-oneapi-dpcpp-debugger-eclipse-cfg (>= 10.0-2083.beta09) but it is not installed"

Any thoughts on how to fix that? I tried "apt --fix-broken install" but that produced the same message.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

We are also getting the same issue while updating the Intel OneAPI basekit.

So we are forwarding this issue to the concerned team.

We will get back to you at earliest.

Warm Regards,

Abhishek

Thanks. The error occurred while updating from 2021.1 beta08.

Also, in my original post I should have included a little more information on my system:

Update:

This morning I followed the instructions on updating the "Intel Repository" public key. Then after running "sudo apt update" in terminal, the result of running "sudo apt --fix-broken install" is the following:

Now the problem is that a certain file cannot be overwritten. After first seeing this error message, I thought that a reboot might help, thinking that perhaps the package manager was in a bad state, but the results of doing so were the same.

Perhaps deleting the '/opt/intel/oneapi/etc/eclipse/gdb_oneapi.eclipse' would be a work-around?

Since I am no Linux-expert, I cannot be sure as to why I receive output different from that originally posted. Is it to do with update the public key, or has the repository that I am pulling packages from been updated? If it is the former, why is this not handled by "Software Updater" in the OS?

Cheers.

This issue has been escalated and is included in the Release notes for both Base and HPC toolkit as known issue.

Thanks for your reply @Subarnarek_G_Intel. And glad to hear that you guys are taking a look at this. In the mean time I am stuck with an installation of my OS that I can't seem to modify in any way, e.g. recently I tried install Visual Studio Code, which produced the same error message. To work around this I issued 'sudo apt --purge remove intel-basekit', but this also produces the original error. Short of re-installing my OS, do you have any thoughts on what I can do to uninstall the Base Toolkit?

Thanks in advance.

This is still an issue as of today.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for your patience. The issue raised by you has been fixed in the latest OneAPI version (2021.2). Please download and let us know your experience with it.

[nesavi]

Hi Prasanth

Thanks for taking the time to look into this issue. I have since moved on from Ubuntu, so unfortunately I will not be able to follow up on this issue with a test. Perhaps one of the other posters in this thread can be of some help?

[PrasanthD_intel]

Hi Thomas,

As the issue has been fixed in the latest version. We are closing this thread.

Please raise a new thread if you face any issues in the future.

Regards

Prasanth
