Package: quota Version: 4.01-4 Severity: serious Dear Michael,
unfortunately quota 4.01-4 fails to upgrade or install on machines where no quota is present in /etc/fstab. It also does not care if the word "quota" appears in an actuall file system line or in a comment. I've added a "set +x" to /var/lib/dpkg/info/quota.postinst to get the following traces: Without the string "quota" anywhere in /etc/fstab: # dpkg --configure --pending Setting up quota (4.01-4) ... + set -e + '[' configure = configure ']' + . /usr/share/debconf/confmodule ++ '[' '!'
