It seems that the postinst tries to add some symlinks to directories that don't exist. The fix should be very easy, so I don't know why this is still unresolved.
Anyway, here is a workaround (run as root): for d in $(ls /usr/share/icons/gnome-colors-common/*/places | sed -rn 's,^.*/([0-9]+x[0-9]+)/.*$,\1,p'); do mkdir -p "/usr/share/icons/gnome/$d/places"; done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/835414 Title: package gnome-colors-common 5.5.1-1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-colors/+bug/835414/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
