Public bug reported:
Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Assignee: Ian Jackson
Status: Confirmed
Description:
This is because i hit BUG#37430.
Now, I have a bunch of files in /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives that are
corrupted.
This is because (obviously to me at least) that whatever maintains this
list is not creating a new file, syncing and renaming it to do updates
to the files in this directory. If it did, no files would be corrupted
and recoving from this crash would be a lot easier.
What I really need now is a program that will regenerate the files in
this directory. Or at least point out the corrupted ones and regenerate
those.
