Hi: As no clues arrive from the package web site, may I ask if the following problems may derive from my bad management of the OS?
Task: install octopus on a multisocket dual-opteron 875, OS = debian amd64 lenny (octopus is a molecular computational program). 1) downloaded octopus-3.0.1-1.x86_64.rpm. 2) #alien -k --scripts octopus-3.0.1-1.x86_64.rpm (which reported no errors). 3) #dpkg -i octopus-3.0.1-1.x86_64.deb Selecting previous deselected package octopus. (Reading database ... 106160 files and directories currently installed). Unpacking octopus (from octopus-3.0.1-1.x86_64.deb) ... Setting up octopus (3.0.1-1) ... dpkg: error processing octopus (--install): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2 Processing triggers for man-db ... Errors were encountered while processing: octopus ====== Subsequently, on command # apt-get update #apt-get upgrade 1 not fully installed or removed. Setting up octopus (3.0.1-1) ... dpkg: error processing octopus (--configure) subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) === Command #apt-get -f install reports now the same error. ====== Is that an error in the configuration of the program?
