I built a Ryzen PC that will be running OpenMediaVault atop Debian as a headless server.
At the moment it's running Debian Buster from the Buster Official Snapshot amd64 DVD Binary-1 20180604 DVD image, and apt is pulling from the buster contrib main non-free repo.
Now before you criticize me for creating a FrankenDebian I have 2 reasons:
1) I could not just install Stretch and upgrade/backport kernel through Debian, as Ryzen is completely unsupported in the kernel on Stretch (I learned this by trying to do exactly that and getting an unbootable system lol)
2) My Internet (ISP) and LAN (router) do not work well enough to allow for network installation, it must be done through a disc image. I'm moving in 3-6 months and will be getting a new router then but until then it's much easier to just deal with it. (yes, everything is hard-wired, and rebooted daily)
anyway, it seems I broke libpsl5 and/or dpkg itself. When I try to interact with apt I get some errors:
Code:
Need to get 53.7 kB of archives.
After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.

When I tried to manually reinstall libpsl5:amd64 as instructed I received this error:
Code:
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
unfortunately this winds up in a circle:

Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n
Abort.
Should I choose yes? I thought about trying it, but I didn't want to put extra nails in my FrankenDebian's head and make it worse
Thanks for any assistance
