Package: xkb-data Version: 1.7-1 Severity: important
I am unable to complete the upgrade of xkb-data from 1.6-1 to 1.7-1. I was able to boil down the problem to the following: $ sudo dpkg -D2 --configure xkb-data Setting up xkb-data (1.7-1) ... D000002: fork/exec /var/lib/dpkg/info/xkb-data.postinst ( configure 1.6-1 ) dpkg: error processing xkb-data (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: xkb-data The last action in xkb-data.postinst is: rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty /etc/X11/xkb 2>/dev/null And in fact, that fails with exit status 1, because /etc/X11/xkb is a symlink to /usr/share/X11/xkb. It looks like that line needs to be replaced with: if [ ! -h /etc/X11/xkb ]; then rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty /etc/X11/xkb 2>/dev/null fi Thanks, Yitz -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
