It seems as if your locale settings (keyboard encoding) interferes with the command and sends strange characters to the apt-get command.

To begin with, to make sure apt-get has not been deleted unintentionally, can you post the outcome of these:

Code: Select all

which apt-get
which apt

And what is your keyboard layout:

Code: Select all

setxkbmap -query | grep layout

Or if this doesn't work as expected (due to the above issue), you can check from "Menu > Pref > Keyboard > Layout".

[eliasmansilla]

eliasmansilla@noah:~$ which apt-get
/usr/bin/apt-get
eliasmansilla@noah:~$ which apt
/usr/bin/apt
eliasmansilla@noah:~$ setxkbmap -query | grep layout
layout: latam

Almost in bed, but I believe something more serious is going on here: it seems OP's system is interpreting the binary (i.e., an ELF-executable) as a shell script or at least, does not recognize apt-get as an ELF-binary. AFAIA a bona fide ELF-binary should start with 0x7F, 'ELF' and indeed his/hers doesn't seem to. Reparring that is also going to be non-trivial what with apt-get itself affected and I should as said not be here currently, but just as a heads-up: this looks more involved...

Your system is corrupted, and with corruption there's no telling what else may be damaged. You ought to consider backing up your important files before deciding to restore your system from a backup or deciding if a clean install is warranted.

This happened to me when I wanted to install opera-stable_68.0.3618.125_amd64.deb and code_1.46.0-1591780013_amd64.deb, it didn't install, it gave me error and after that apt-get doesn't work anymore.

I did this:

Removing apt:amd64 (1.6.12ubuntu0.1) ...

and now I just:

eliasmansilla@noah:~$ sudo apt-get update
sudo: apt-get: command not found
eliasmansilla@noah:~$


How do I know which of the apt packages I need? (Kernel: 5.3.0-59-generic i686 bits: 32 compiler: gcc v: 7.5.0 Desktop: Cinnamon 4.4.8 Distro: Linux Mint 19.3 Tricia base: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Bionic)

I have apt 0.9.7.7 apt_0.9.7.7ubuntu5_i386.deb? apt_0.9.7.7ubuntu4_i386.deb? or apt_0.9.7.5ubuntu5_i386.deb? apt_0.9.7.5ubuntu5.5_i386.deb?
But I don't know what's the difference between the ubuntu4 and ubuntu5 suffix, as I don't use Ubuntu myself, sorry

[erginemr]

Your system is corrupted, and with corruption there's no telling what else may be damaged. You ought to consider backing up your important files before deciding to restore your system from a backup or deciding if a clean install is warranted.

eliasmansilla,

I thought the problem to be related to your keyboard but other people here gave more insight and I agree with them.

it seens the executable apt-get command is corrupted and there is no telling what other are, too. So you should follow their advice, backup your personal files and do a clear install while formatting the partition on which Linux resides.

[eliasmansilla]

This happened to me when I wanted to install opera-stable_68.0.3618.125_amd64.deb and code_1.46.0-1591780013_amd64.deb, it didn't install, it gave me error and after that apt-get doesn't work anymore.

Sorry but I managed to stop this from appearing anymore::

only appears to me nothing else:

How can I know the apt version that I should install for my linux mint version?
since this apt: amd64 (1.6.12ubuntu0.1) is not (install it with aptitude by mistake)
Thank you

[erginemr]

Based also on the feedback of other users, I strongly suggest you to reinstall the system. This might even be related to hard disk problems.

However, if you insist; based on the following information:

Host: noah Kernel: 5.3.0-59-generic i686 bits: 32 compiler: gcc v: 7.5.0
Desktop: Cinnamon 4.4.8 Distro: Linux Mint 19.3 Tricia

you are using Mint v19.3 32-bit and the correct version for your system is:

Code: Select all

https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/i386/apt/download

Once downloaded, you can reinstall it by double-clicking on it or via the following command:

Code: Select all

sudo gdebi apt_1.6.12ubuntu0.1_i386.deb

[eliasmansilla]

I already reinstalled it but nothing happened:

[rene]

Do you want to install the software package? [y/N]:

I.e., do it again...

[erginemr]

For a change, can you also try this:

Code: Select all

apt update

apt is a modern filler for apt-get & apt-cache, with a more concise syntax.

[mr_raider]

You can also try running aptitude:

sudo aptitude


That will launch an interface from which you can repair broken packages.

[eliasmansilla]

And how do I use it to repair the apt-get command?

[eliasmansilla]

thanks i could solve it!!!

Nicely done eliasmansilla.

Just so you're aware, those other things you tried to install were 64Bit versions that are not compatible with your 32Bit Operating System. Your computer is 64Bit, so I don't know if you made a mistake downloading/installing the wrong ISO of Mint.

[eliasmansilla]

Yes, we made a mistake in the architecture of the packages (32bits / 64bits), but the apt-get was solved ...
thank you very much community!
