I'm on omv6 on a dedicated machine and the system was running smoothly until I started the update process. This morning I installed the available updates via the workbench. This cause a "connection lost" message at some point. I then connected as root via ssh to the machine and tried to do an "apt update && apt omv-upgrade" but at first the DNS resolver was down which I could resolve via systemctl start resolver.service (or something like that). apt update went through but omv-upgrade was not installed anymore. I panicked and installed omv and extras via dpkg -i openmediavault[...].deb which made omv-upgrade available again but threw a bunch of dependency issues (unsurprisingly).
What I tried to do:
* dpkg -configure -a does do anything
* apt --fix-broken install wants to uninstall omv and extras. doing so and trying to install omv again throws dependency errors
* omv-upgrade uninstalls omv and extras
* apt dist-upgrade (and apt install openmediavault) results in:
root@omv:~# sudo apt dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
openmediavault : Depends: wsdd (>= 0.6.2) but it is not installed
Depends: samba but it is not installed
Depends: samba-common-bin but it is not installed
Depends: avahi-daemon but it is not installed
Depends: libnss-mdns but it is not installed
Depends: samba-vfs-modules but it is not installed
Depends: chrony but it is not installed
Depends: libnss-resolve but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

When I try to install those services one by one I get more dependency error messages.
What is working:
- - Workbench GUI
- - Containers
- - NSF seems ok
What is NOT working:
- - SMB/Samba
- - Backup?
- - probably a whole Bunch of "behind the scene" things that I'm not yet aware about
I'm getting desperate because of my limited Linux skills. Is there any way to salvage my half-running system? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
