I just tried with a package that can't be installed on a regular Ubuntu system (ltsp-client-core). The installation process showed the debconf critical message from ltsp-client-core telling the user it can't be installed on an non-LTSP. The install then fails but APT is still in a consistent state (with ltsp-client-core getting removed) after that.
I'll try something else that fails even more than ltsp-client-core and try the suggested "start GUI from preinst/postinst" to see how aptdaemon deals with that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/665218 Title: Software-center reports a progamming error in aptdaemon but without any details -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
