The dpkg log shows an interesting message for you: Preparing to replace latex-xft-fonts 0.1-8 (using .../latex-xft-fonts_1.6.7-1~lucid1_all.deb) ... E: /var/lib/defoma/locked exists. E: Another defoma process seems running, or you aren't root. E: If you are root and defoma process isn't running undoubtedly, E: it is possible that defoma might have aborted. E: Please run defoma-reconfigure -f to fix its broken status. dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/latex-xft-fonts_1.6.7-1~lucid1_all.deb (--unpack): subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
Have you tried to run "sudo defoma-reconfigure -f" as suggested by the error message ? In any case, dpkg is not the culprit so reassigning to defoma since that what's broken. ** Package changed: dpkg (Ubuntu) => defoma (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/937916 Title: package latex-xft-fonts 0.1-8 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package latex-xft-fonts is already installed and configured To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/defoma/+bug/937916/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
