[Bug 397136] Re: package semantic 1:1.0pre4-3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[era]

Can you verify whether /usr/share/info/semantic-user.info.gz corresponds
to what's in the downloaded package file?  Also, could you please verify
which version of install-info is being invoked?

The sudo/administrator user might have a different PATH than you have
yourself.  Try something like "sudo sh -c 'type -a install-info'" and
for every pathname returned, invoke it with --version and check its
owner with dpkg -S.  For example, here's what I get on my system:

jaunty$ sudo sh -c 'type -a install-info'
[sudo] password for era: 
install-info is /usr/sbin/install-info

jaunty$ /usr/sbin/install-info --version
Debian install-info version 1.14.24ubuntu1.

jaunty$ dpkg -S /usr/sbin/install-info 
dpkg: /usr/sbin/install-info

(dpkg -S is kind of slow; have patience.)
