I'll try to clarify the steps/actions i did before i faced with the issue. I have several partitions on my hdd: sda1 - intrepid root partition sda6 - /home partition sda8 - debian lenny root partition sda7 - jaunty root partition
In intrepid I have ecryptfs-utils installed, but actually don't use it. When jaunty beta has become available I tried to install it for testing on a separate sda7 partition using desktop-i386 cd. During an installation process I was asked to assign mount points for partitions. I chose sda7 as a / partition and sda6 as a /home partition. Some steps later I created "jaunty" user with /home/jaunty home directory. Before I faced with the ecryptfs-utils issue I also got https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350087 . After installation process had finished I rebooted my computer into jaunty. Update-manager reported a broken package ecryptfs-utils. Next I rebooted into intrepid, removed ecryptfs-utils, rebooted into jaunty, executed "sudo apt-get install -f" (if i'm not mistaken) and the package finally had been successfully installed. I hope my explanation will help. Sorry for not providing it beforehand. -- package ecryptfs-utils 73-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350089 You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs, which is subscribed to ecryptfs-utils in ubuntu.
