Help: Unable to uninstall dcbd package in Ubuntu-16.04

5 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/help-unable-to-uninstall-dcbd-package-in-ubuntu-16-04.198320/

I inadvertently installed the package "dcbd" in Ubuntu-16.04.
Actually it was not fully installed nor removed.
Now I am facing immense difficulties whenever I am installing/uninstalling a package in Ubuntu-16.04

Please help Friends,regarding the successful uninstall of this app/package.

Above are the two screenshots provided for the details of the problem.

This appears to be a bug in Ubuntu.

Reference: Bug #1553395 “removal of dcbd fails due to “update-rc.d: error: ...” : Bugs : dcbd package : Ubunt

That link also has a possible solution. See if that works for you.

^ Thank You Desmond for your generous and genius minded help.
Issues regarding "dcbd" completely resolved and gone.

Friend,I know that you possess an expertise in programming.

Regarding shutdown issues of Ubuntu-16.04(not shutting down normally,I have to force shutdown by pressing the power button on my laptop)could you help me out ?

You can try sudo shutdown in terminal

run the following command from a terminal from a Live CD if you cant access GRUB menu typing the following command fsck /dev/sda1
type reboot after the process finishes if needed
