Hi all,
as already posted on this and the users list installation of gv and
wget and upgrade of util-linux failed on hoary. I filed bug reports
and wrote this mail (<di2r6l$2ge$1 at sea.gmane.org>) but didn't get
any answer (the bugs don't appear on http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/). I
didn't had the time to investigate further and wanted to await the
Breezy release. But upgrade of util-linux still fails! I did the
following:
s/hoary/breezy/ in /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
script /root/hoary-breezy-upgrade-20051017.txt
apt-get upgrade util-linux
(unresolved dependencies)
apt-get install -f
...
(Reading database ... 87752 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace util-linux 2.12p-2ubuntu2 (using
.../util-linux_2.12p-6ubuntu5_i386.deb) ...
install-info: No dir file specified; try --help for more information.
dpkg: warning - old pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
dpkg - trying script from the new package instead ...

subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
install-info: unrecognized option `--description=System V
interprocess communication facilities'
Try `install-info --help' for a complete list of options.
dpkg: error while cleaning up:
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/util-linux_2.12p-6ubuntu5_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Please help me on this topic! I couldn't do any security updates on
my laptop for weeks because of util-linux! And I really miss wget
and gv ... but this is another topic. But I want to upgrade to
breezy and I guess this is impossible with the failure of util-linux
upgrades. I did not try and can not make any experiments at the moment.
Regards,
Christoph
