Hi, By the looks of it

This may take a while ** Des erreurs ont été rencontrées pendant l'exécution : man-db """ your installation of man-db is broken and that needs to be solved before lintian can be installed. Once the man-db issue is solved, the lintian install should work. I would recommend you contacted an Ubuntu support channel (e.g. the forums) and ask for help to sort out the issue. Please show them at least this log snippet above or refer them to this bug (by the looks of it, there is a problem with running debconf, which may be the root of the problem). If there are still issues with installing Lintian after man-db (or/and debconf) has been fixed, feel free to report back here with the new error. ~Niels -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/905979 Title: package lintian 2.3.4ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: problèmes de dépendances - laissé non configuré To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lintian/+bug/905979/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
