I have a similar problem when updating my System. It says in aptitude for ppp the following, but it might be caused by any of the other packets at the end. Someone with an idea? I'm running these foreign repos: deb http://dl.google.com/linux/earth/deb/ stable main deb

While that's good for your system :-) I'm afraid I still understand what went wrong initially in the first place. Calling the postinsts manually should be very close to what actually happens during apt-get. It seems reasonably clear that it was invoke-rc.d complaining about symlinks, so it seems

Martin: The previous invocation of /var/lib/dpkg/info/udev.postinst configure seems to have cleared the problem so I didn't rerun this command. However, I was installing other packages and while installing evolution, ran into my old nemisis: spamassassin which failed in a similar manner, creating

Thanks for the further debug output. In your first response I don't really understand the invoke-rc.d complaint about the symlink. dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: couldn't identify the package Ah, I forgot about that. Try running it like that: # env DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_PACKAGE=udev

Can you please run sudo sh -ex /var/lib/dpkg/info/udev.postinst configure and copypaste the output here? At first sight it looks like it errors out at invoke-rc.d udev restart. If it does, can you confirm that sudo invoke-rc.d udev restart; echo $? says 102 in the last line? Please

PPS: OK, I misunderstood the messages regarding mdadm. It is complaning about an array that is NOT related to booting, but gets mounted through fstab. At first I though that it was implying that the /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf file was corrupted and that support for mdadm had been eliminated from
