Fix broken APT after JetPack installation

From RidgeRun Developer Wiki

Problem Description

Sometimes when you are installing packages for your a host machine, some dependencies may crash due to the installation of packages of diverse architectures on the same host. For example, NVIDIA's JetPack installs ARM64 dependencies that don't let the packages update process finish properly.

Steps to Solve the Issue

Run this on your host PC
  • Find the ARM64 installed packages:
dpkg --get-selections | awk '/:arm64/{print $1}'
  • Uninstall those ARM64 installed packages:
apt-get remove --purge `dpkg --get-selections | awk '/:arm64/{print $1}'`
  • Remove the ARM64 architecture from apt:
dpkg --remove-architecture arm64
  • Update the packages:
sudo apt update
