[Bug 299829] Re: package torque-server 2.1.8+dfsg-0ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 255

[Mindaugas]

Hi,

I'm not an advanced Linux user, so say if somewhere I did a mistake.

When I type a bash command "hostname" it gives me "dell" - that is the  
name of my computer.

In my /etc/hosts I've changed "127.0.0.1 localhost" into "127.0.0.1
dell".

Installation process gave me the following error: "E: torque-server:  
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3"
