Code:
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
so
go find /var/lib/dpkg/info/python-apt.postinst
add 'exit 0' under 'set -e' [at the top, after #!/bin/sh]
Code:
apt-get -f install
UPDATE: fixed pkgs now in fix.main
Code:
dpkg: warning: subprocess old pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
dpkg - trying script from the new package instead ...
dpkg: ... it looks like that went OK.
Unpacking replacement python-apt ...
Selecting previously deselected package python-apt-common.
Unpacking python-apt-common (from .../python-apt-common_0.7.98.1_all.deb) ...
Setting up python-apt-common (0.7.98.1) ...
Setting up python-apt (0.7.98.1) ...

OK, here's a question....
I understand editing the postinst script because it's broken and it's the only way to get apt up and able again. But should then the package be downgraded to testing so that the package will be installed with a postinst that actually runs? |

well, it probably is not configured right because postinst didnt run at all,
which probably also has influence on prerm and postrm
so editing these files for me is really a last resort.

| Thanks for this fix. It was getting a bit frustrating using apt-get and getting error messages about python-get. I hope this bug gets fixed in the next upgrade. |

See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=598432 for all the glory details.
Michael said he will upoad a fixed version soon…
This fixed upload will NOT fix broken installations. You have to apply the fix noted above by etorix if your APT is stuck. So yes, holding the currently working version until the fixed one hits the mirrors is the preferred option. |

Cool. I believe the fix is already out. This is what I get after doing "apt-show-versions -u"
Code:
python-apt/sid upgradeable from 0.7.98 to 0.7.98.1

Well done, it's great!
yes, I had the error messages also on d-u
[url="d-u mess1"]pastebin.ca/1951126[/url]
[url="d-u mess2"]pastebin.ca/1951146[/url]
I came over it by a normal d-u after today. I was told that an old script did not work, but the new one did it.
For your info.
Code:
apt-cache policy python-apt
python-apt:
Installiert: 0.7.98.1
Kandidat: 0.7.98.1
EDIT:
sorry do not know, how to handle these url tags. |
