found 561718 1.2.1-3 thanks Hi,
I can reproduce this bug here: | Setting up nfs-common (1:1.2.1-3) ... | insserv: Service portmap has to be enabled to start service nfs-common | insserv: exiting now! | update-rc.d: error: insserv rejected the script header | dpkg: error processing nfs-common (--configure): | subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 | Errors were encountered while processing: | nfs-common | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) The message suggests that the portmap initscript is not enabled at the time of the installation (which is the case here on my netbook, I don't want to have it started at boot by default). And indeed after reactivating portmap using 'insserv /etc/init.d/portmap' the nfs-common installation was successful. Cheers, Tobias
