The problem appears to be only in the latest version of gutsy, ie 2.6.22-15-generic.
Others on the forum report 2.6.22-14 being ok to recover and complete a dist upgrade by running 'dpkg --configure -a' from a recovery boot (init 1 ie 'single'), and I have just run 'dpkg --configure -a' using hardy 2.6.24-19-generic successfully from a recovery boot. So far I appear to have a gui session running normally. There must be something in 2.6.22-15 that is clashing with the locale stuff which is what is surfacing to wreck dist upgrades. -- package update-manager 1:0.87.30 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: SystemError in cache.commit(): E:Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259956 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
