hey there, just to clarify the situation here... a bit

It seems MGE has been taken over again and > is now Eaton so I decided to leave it. not our (my) fault here ;-) about the MGE UPS -> MGE Office Protection Systems -> Eaton transition, it's been a hard time. but the important point is that the NUT sponsor has gone from a 3000 peoples group to a 75000 peoples group, giving me more resources than ever... now for the future of the PSP, a rewrite is planned during the summer, using the new python stuffs that I have introduced in NUT 2.4.1, but that are still unpackaged (hard to be on that many fronts!!) Now when I try to install any software I get an error stating nut would not > install or upgrade. > I intend to re install nut using synaptic. > The mge package for Ubuntu was tried to be installed using the instructions > on their website from the terminal because it did not show up in synaptic. > the issue here was that: - the ubuntu package has taken over the Eaton one (higher release), - the /var/run/nut dir creation has been removed from the Ubuntu package (nut.dirs file), and only handled by the init script for runtime. and its existance was necessary for the package postinst @Chuck: I have some more stuffs underway for Sid that you'll want to sync once uploaded. we'll have to have a quick chat so that I can give you a bit of visibility... cheers, Arnaud -- Linux / Unix Expert R&D - Eaton - http://www.eaton.com/mgeops Network UPS Tools (NUT) Project Leader - http://www.networkupstools.org/ Debian Developer - http://www.debian.org Free Software Developer - http://arnaud.quette.free.fr/ -- package nut 2.4.1-2ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387728 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nut in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
