Hi @TheWanderer1983 , can you confirm that you have sufficient disk space to install the tools? I noticed you had a disk space error earlier when installing REMnux.

When looking at your logs, it appears that many of the tools are not installable due to broken packages, which may have become broken due to the aforementioned disk space error.

Thanks for the fast response. Looking at df I can see I have 5 gig free. I just expanded it anyway and tried again same errors.

Now that you've increased your disk space, try running:

sudo apt-get install -f

This should fix the broken packages from before, then try running the install again. If that install fails, please upload that log so we can try to resolve any further issues :)

@TheWanderer1983 Can you confirm your date/time and timezone? The time in the log you uploaded shows it started between 21-22h. If your timezone is correct, then this log may be a previous log.

If the date is incorrect or the time is too far ahead, that can installation issues with APT.

Hey @digitalsleuth
The time and timezone is correct. I'm in Australia. I've just deleted the saltstack.log and reran sudo sift install --mode=packages-only this morning.
Attached is the new saltstack.log

I failed to mention sudo apt-get install -f didn't fix any issues, however there were clearly many umets. For example, I couldn't install apache2. Is it better to keep sift and remnux separate?

Last checked they run together, but it's always possible there's going to be conflicts, it just depends on what is being installed.

So right now there are either held or broken packages which can be difficult to troubleshoot.

You can try installing apache2 manually and see what error returns and see if it indicates which package isn't installed all the way and start trying to fix it by either force installing or uninstalling the broken package.

Closing due to age.
