Package: grub, apt, dpkg debian_version: jessie/sid Hi!
Today I tried to upgrade Debian GNU/kfreebsd to the latest packages. After running a while the upgrade process stopped with errors "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)". Starting "apt-get upgrade" again only lead to the same error. Since the packages where downloaded I tried to update them manualy: cd /var/cache/apt/archive dpkg -i <pkg> This time a lot of packages where unpacked, but again the very same error "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)" after apt-get trying to configure unpacked and installed packages. doing "dpgk --configure -a" seemed to solve the error. A following apt-get ran until the next configure part. Again the same error: "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)". At one point grub was upgraded. Some messages about passthru-drivers not found or device da0s1 not being available hushed by. After an additional "dpkg --configure -a" and further upgrades all seemed to be OK. "update-grub" did not give back any errors. After rebooting a bunch of messages about /proc and others not being found, missing files and such, the system booted to the prompt, but it is impossible to login. Looks like apt-get, dpkg and some helper scripts are badly broken now. -- Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
