Same problem here, upgrading from a mixed system etch+lenny to lenny. Managed to complete the upgrade with the following: # dpkg --configure module-init-tools Setting up module-init-tools (3.4-1) ... dpkg-divert: rename involves overwriting `/sbin/depmod' with different file `/sbin/depmod.modutils', not allowed dpkg: error processing module-init-tools (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2 Errors were encountered while processing: module-init-tools # dpkg-divert --list|grep depmod diversion of /sbin/depmod to /sbin/depmod.modutils by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/man8/depmod.8.gz to /usr/share/man/man8/depmod.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/fr/man8/depmod.8.gz to /usr/share/man/fr/man8/depmod.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools # ls -l /sbin/depmod* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 52800 2008-04-05 04:06 /sbin/depmod -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 52800 2008-04-05 04:06 /sbin/depmod.modutils # mv /sbin/depmod.modutils /root # mv /sbin/insmod.modutils /root # mv /sbin/update-modules.modutils /root # mv /sbin/modinfo.modutils /root # mv /sbin/lsmod.Lmodutils /root # mv /sbin/rmmod.Lmodutils /root # mv /sbin/modprobe.Lmodutils /root # dpkg --configure module-init-tools Setting up module-init-tools (3.4-1) ... # Greetings -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
