[Bug 828922] Re: package hostname 3.05ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package hostname is already installed and configured

[Raphaël Hertzog]

The problem comes from bamf. If the simple unpack of a newer version can
break all perl scripts, it might be wise to pre-depend on the needed
libraries...

Preparing to replace libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 (using
.../libc6_2.13-16ubuntu4_i386.deb) ...

/usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/gio/modules/libgiobamf.so:
undefined symbol: g_desktop_app_info_launch_handler_get_type

dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.13-16ubuntu4_i386.deb (--unpack):

 subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 127

** Package changed: dpkg (Ubuntu) => bamf (Ubuntu)
