> # apt-get install byobu [...] > Setting up byobu (2.34-1) ... > chown: invalid user: `test' > dpkg: error processing byobu (--configure): > subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 [...] The above mentioned test user/group (1002:1003) seems to be a leftover of another package (fossology) - after running 'deluser/delgroup fossy' it's: # ls -la /var/run/screen/ total 20 drwxrwxr-x 5 root utmp 4096 2007-12-03 22:00 ./ drwxrwxrwt 63 root root 4096 2009-09-28 13:00 ../ drwx------ 2 mika mika 4096 2009-09-28 13:56 S-mika/ drwx------ 2 root root 4096 2009-09-28 13:56 S-root/ drwx------ 2 1002 1003 4096 2009-09-28 13:56 S-test/ (No idea where the screen session of 'test' is really coming from, have to verify that.) Removing the S-test directory fixes installation of byobu of course. But the error handling inside the postinst script of byobu should handle that IMHO. regards, -mika-
