Ubuntu 14.04 LTS install problem

Hello Urs

I could install PostgreSQL 9.4 on Ubuntu 14.04 without adding repositories (actually it was an upgrade and I had to move the data manually from 9.3 to 9.4). You may want to try it that way?

Bye
Charles

I installed Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
apg-get update ... apt-get upgrade ...

and looked at
www.postgresql.org/download/linux/ubuntu
then added apt repository /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list

When I try

apt-get install postgresql-9.4

error:
.... depends on postgresql-common (>= 142~) what should not get installed
... you have defect packages ...

any ideas?

Urs

the Ubuntu-Software Center offers postgresql-9.3, but when trying to
install I get an error:

dependencies missing, "postgresql:" but not more hints

Because it is a totally new computer I have not yet had an older
instance of postgresql.

When I try via terminal
apt-get install postgresql-9.3 there are the same messages about
postgresql-common (>= 142~) ... defect packages ...

I would uninstall the stock (Ubuntu) version before installing the pgdg
version.

I need to check that when I get home. Suddendly I have the impression that I may have added a repository to check 9.4 before it was released.
I will get back at that if nobody else can offer a solution, but it may take some time.

There is no postgresql at all installed - nor can I install the stock
nor the pgdg version

Have you tried:

apt-get dist-upgrade

Strange. The machine I'm typing this on (which has Ubuntu 15.04) had no pgsql
installed:

This isn't really a postgresql problem this is a problem with an
ubuntu machine with a broken packaging system. I'd google "ubuntu
defect pacakges" and see what you find there. There's usually some
single line magical invocation that fixes this kind of stuff.

apt-get -f install

will likely get them to a sane state but watch what is going to be removed.
