[Bug 304574] Re: package nagios2-common 2.11-1ubuntu1.3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Andreas,

I have had intermittent problems with file system corruption for the
past 4 or 5 years. This has happened with SuSE, Debian and earlier
versions of Ubuntu. The problem goes away and I thought it was gone for
good this time but it reappeared with the previous version of Ubuntu. I
am now on 8.10. and no problems so far. I think, in hindsight, that the
Nagios problem was related to this creeping root file system corruption.
It became so bad I could not recover and had to do a new install (and
upgrade to 8.10). 

I did a complete uninstall of Nagios (on Hardy Heron) and a fresh
install  and it worked fine. I had to manually remove some files as I
had tried uninstall and re-install several times. At this time I think
it is best to close this bug as unrelated to Nagios.

The symptoms I have appear as if my hard drive were failing but the
drives always test good and I've had multiple drives over the years. I
have an all SCSI system. I tried to identify the problem but have been
unable to. If you have ever heard of a similar problem of creeping
corruption eventually requiring an fsck on nearly every reboot, I'd
appreciate any guidance you could give. 

Thanks,
Georges Jamieson

Making a plain install of nagios2 on 8.04 i386 seems to be working fine.

What version of Ubuntu were you upgrading from? What method did you use
to upgrade? What nagios version did you have before the upgrade?

When in the process did you try to purge what packages?
