Can you paste the exact message, even if it is localized. The only error messages that are close to that one are either: "unable to install (supposed) new info file '%.250s'" "unable to install new info file '%.250s' as '%.250s'" both are related to a failed rename of the new info file, but that would not explain either the error message (from errno) which I cannot find either in glibc. > -- Configuration Files: > /etc/issue changed: > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Welcome to the Proxmox Virtual Environment.

Perhaps there's an issue with Proxmox? I've marked this moreinfo and unreproducible, because the error message does not make sense to me given the code history, so if I don't hear anything in a while, I guess I'll just have to close this as a non-actionable report.
