Hi, I want to use pt-online-schema-change on a remote server, hence, I try to install percona-toolkit. However, both using deb file or apt install would have unmet dependencies. Do you have any suggestion about this? I am a bit worry about the unmet dependencies because I don’t want to break the dependencies accidentally.

I follow the document to update apt repo:

wget [https://repo.percona.com/apt/percona-release\_0.1-4.$](https://repo.percona.com/apt/percona-release_0.1-4.%24)(lsb\_release -sc)\_all.deb  
sudo dpkg -i percona-release\_0.1-4.$(lsb\_release -sc)\_all.deb  
sudo apt update  
sudo apt-cache search percona  
sudo apt-get install percona-toolkit

Unmet message when installing percona-toolkit:

Reading package lists… Done  
Building dependency tree  
Reading state information… Done  
percona-toolkit is already the newest version (3.0.6-1.xenial).  
You might want to run ‘apt-get -f install’ to correct these:  
The following packages have unmet dependencies:  
percona-toolkit : Depends: libdbi-perl (\>= 1.13) but it is not going to be installed  
Depends: libdbd-mysql-perl but it is not going to be installed or  
libdbd-mysql-5.1-perl but it is not installable  
Depends: libterm-readkey-perl (\>= 2.10) but it is not going to be installed  
Depends: libio-socket-ssl-perl but it is not going to be installed  
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt-get -f install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).
