--- Begin Message ---Package: localepurge Version: 0.7.3.2 Severity: important Removing localepurge (0.7.3.2) ... Purging configuration files for localepurge (0.7.3.2) ... debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog debconf: (No usable dialog-like program is installed, so the dialog based frontend cannot be used. at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/FrontEnd/Dialog.pm line 76.) debconf: falling back to frontend: Readline /etc/locale.nopurge could not be purged because ucf was not found. To reinstall all the packages which localepurge has been taking care of before, you can use the following command: apt-get -u --reinstall --fix-missing install $(dpkg -S LC_MESSAGES | cut -d: -f1 | tr ', ' '' | sort -u) # dpkg -S LC_MESSAGES | cut -d: -f1 | tr ', ' '' | sort -u tr: when not truncating set1, string2 must be non-empty In the postinst there is this line: echo " apt-get -u --reinstall --fix-missing install \$(dpkg -S LC_MESSAGES | cut -d: -f1 | tr ', ' '${NEWLINE}' | sort -u)" but NEWLINE is an unset variable This should work instead: echo " apt-get -u --reinstall --fix-missing install \$(dpkg -S LC_MESSAGES | cut -d: -f1 | tr ', ' '\\n' | sort -u)" Andreas
