This happens when trying to update or install things in apt. Tell me if more info is needed.

    If you are missing the /lib/klibc-*.so files, then you have a broken libklibc package. You can try to reinstall it as follows:

    sudo apt --reinstall install libklibc

    After that, you can try to repair the rest of the system with:

    sudo apt install -f
sudo dpkg --configure -a

      sudo apt --reinstall install libklibc

      Runs into the same problem because the firmware tries to update. Tried install

      sudo apt --reinstall install -f libklibc

      too but didn’t work

    Throwing stuff at the wall but I’d personally start with a good old

    sudo apt install -f

    sudo dpkg --configure -a

    It will reconfigure all your installed packages. Afterwards, I’d try a full upgrade:

    sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

    Let me know if this helps :)

      These didn’t work. Look at the other comments for error messages.

      sudo apt install -f

      This fails and gives the same error.

      sudo dpkg --configure -a

    Porblem solved! I downloaded the libklibc package manually.
