Package: ltsp-client-core Version: 5.5.4-1 Severity: serious Tags: patch When removing a linux-image package on an armhf system (and presumably armel as well), mkimage is called in the ltsp-client hook /etc/kernel/postrm.d/update-kernels, and generates output that causes the package removal to fail...
Removing symbolic link initrd.img.old
You may need to re-run your boot loader
Purging configuration files for linux-image-3.16.0-4-armmp-lpae (3.16.7-2) ...
dpkg: error processing package linux-image-3.16.0-4-armmp-lpae (--purge):
subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 128
Errors were encountered while processing:
linux-image-3.16.0-4-armmp-lpae
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
The following patch fixes this by redirecting the mkimage output to
/dev/null.
I plan to upload a fixed package today.
