Title: package speech-dispatcher 0.8-5ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1 Status in speech-dispatcher package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Following the instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2143157&p=12650610#post12650610 , I tried to disable speech-dispatcher as follows: sudo vi /etc/default/speech-dispatcher terminal refused to accept change from RUN=yes to RUN=no. TRIED TO CHANGE 'YES' TO 'NO' -would not accept the command so tried to close terminal. Reports: “There is still a process running in this terminal. Closing the terminal will kill it.” opted to close On rebooting get a message: E325: ATTENTION Found a swap file by the name "/etc/default/.speech-dispatcher.swp" owned by: root dated: Fri Mar 30 10:16:12 2018 file name: /etc/default/speech-dispatcher modified: YES user name: root host name: nicnoks-desktop process ID: 4222 While opening file "/etc/default/speech-dispatcher" dated: Fri Mar 23 11:21:51 2018 (1) Another program may be editing the same file. If this is the case, be careful not to end up with two different instances of the same file when making changes. Quit, or continue with caution. (2) An edit session for this file crashed. If this is the case, use ":recover" or "vim -r /etc/default/speech-dispatcher" to recover the changes (see ":help recovery"). If you did this already, delete the swap file "/etc/default/.speech-dispatcher.swp" to avoid this message.
