Before you can start using deja-dup
, you have to click Install...
in the Backups window, for deja-dup
to "first install some necessary software".
When I click the Install...
button, I get this error message:
Could not install
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.PackageKit was not provided by any .service files
I desperately tried sudo apt-get -f install
because I had no other idea, but it did not solve this.
Just some information about my machine:
I'm running ubuntu 16.04:
uname -srvio
Linux 4.10.0-42-generic #46~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Dec 4 15:57:59 UTC
2017 x86_64 GNU/Linux`
lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial
deja-dup --version
deja-dup 34.2
Thanks for any help!
