Install GDBM when apt is not working
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I am trying to update my 16.04 to the latest 18.10. But this caused a relocation error with the package libapt-pkg.so. This naturally makes my apt useless. To overcome that I am following the advice given here to force install the package. However when I run dpkg -i it says that GDBM is not found. Naturally I cannot install GDBM because my apt is not working. How to overcome this.
