Problems with apt upgrade

[blueskyfeeling]

Hello, I have installed NextcloudPi on my Raspberry PI5. Current OS installation:

Now, I would like to make an upgrade and get the following issue.

What can I do?

You may take a look here, esp. section "Troubleshooting"

Edit: Typo in link corrected.

Thank you very much. But these links aren't helping me, or I don't understand them.

Sorry little typo in link, corrected now.

The hint on the link did at least not work for me

apt update
dpkg --remove --force-all libraspberrypi0 armbian-bsp-cli-rpi4b-current
apt --fix-broken install
apt install armbian-bsp-cli-rpi4b-current

After lots of back and forth, I am now stuck on my Pi 5:

My solution was:

• boot a regular RaspberriPi OS from SD-Card
• mount the latest nextcloudpi image once booted (losetup, or just flash it to a USB stick or SD-card and mount it)
• mount boot and boot/firmware from device with the broken installation (NVMe in my case)
• copy boot and boot/firmware from the nextcloudpi image to the mountpoint of the broken installation on the NVMe
• reboot from the "broken" device (NVMe)
• system comes up again but fails to start some services such as proc-sys-fs-binfmt_misc
• dpkg --remove --force-all libraspberrypi0 armbian-bsp-cli-rpi5b-current
• apt --fix-broken install
• apt install armbian-bsp-cli-rpi5b-current
• uninstall and re-install linux-dtb-current-bcm2712
• reinstall linux-image-current-bcm2712
• reboot
• System came back online perfectly healthy

Maybe it would have been enough to run:

• dpkg --remove --force-all libraspberrypi0 armbian-bsp-cli-rpi5b-current
• apt --fix-broken install
• apt install armbian-bsp-cli-rpi5b-current
• apt remove linux-dtb-current-bcm2712
• apt reinstall linux-dtb-current-bcm2712
• apt reinstall linux-image-current-bcm2712

I hope this helps someone ...
