Package: dictionaries-common
Version: 1.12.11
Severity: serious
User: [email protected]
Usertags: piuparts
Control: affects -1 education-desktop-lxde
Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install. As
per definition of the release team this makes the package too buggy for
a release, thus the severity.
This happens under these circumstances:
* distribution: wheezy
* --install-recommends is enabled
* education-desktop-lxde is being installed which brings a lot of
dependencies and recommends
>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):
....
Setting up dictionaries-common (1.12.11) ...
update-default-wordlist: Question empty but elements installed for class
"wordlist"
dictionaries-common/default-wordlist: return code: "0", value: ""
Choices: , Manual symlink setting
shared/packages-wordlist: return code: "10" owners/error:
"shared/packages-wordlist doesn't exist"
Installed elements: english (Webster's Second International English
wordlist)
Please see "/usr/share/doc/dictionaries-common/README.problems", section
"Debconf database corruption" for recovery info.
update-default-wordlist: Selected wordlist ""
does not correspond to any installed package in the system
and no alternative wordlist could be selected.
dpkg: error processing dictionaries-common (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 255
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of aspell:
aspell depends on dictionaries-common (>> 0.40); however:
Package dictionaries-common is not configured yet.
....
Whatever is going on here, this shouldn't happen on initial install
in a fresh system. DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive is being used.
It's very unlikely that the 25GB tmpfs that is used by piuparts
ran out of space ... to cause the classical debconf corruption
described in README.problems.
cheers,
Andreas

Hi, Jonas,
Current bug report was left open in the hope the release team considered
[ #761662: wheezy-pu: package dictionaries-common/1.12.11+deb7u1 ]
appropriate for a point release. Since this did not happen and jessie has
already been released, I have just closed #761662 and am now closing this
bug report, it is no longer meaningful for current stable (now jessie).
