Errors were encountered while processing: fdisk There seem to be 2 issues: one with the dpkg lock (which may be bug 1069183 in aptitude) and one with fdisk. It is not clear whether they are related. At least, bug 1069183 shouldn't be the cause of a bad ordering between package unpacking and setup, which would rather be due to a dependency problem, as indicated by the dpkg error message. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'proposed-updates-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.6.15-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages fdisk depends on: ii libc6 2.37-19 ii libfdisk1 2.40-6 ii libmount1 2.40-8 ii libncursesw6 6.4+20240414-1 ii libreadline8t64 8.2-4 ii libsmartcols1 2.40-8 ii libtinfo6 6.4+20240414-1 Versions of packages fdisk recommends: ii sensible-utils 0.0.22 fdisk suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
