  Upgrades from 11.10 to 12.04 fail indicating "exit status 1" from 
installing/upgrading colord.

  [Discussion]
  /var/lib/dpkg/info/colord.postinst does not produce helpful error messages 
even if run manually.  But the script is trying to run this command:

addgroup --quiet --system scanner

  Running it without the --quiet option reveals the error:

sudo addgroup --system scanner
addgroup: The group `scanner' already exists and is not a system group. 
Exiting.

  So there's the problem: the group is already there but is not a system
  group. Taking a look at the group I see:

  $ grep scanner /etc/group
  scanner:x:1001:colord

  Indeed it is not a system group, and it only seems to be used by
  colord.

  [Test Case]
  1.  Install Ubuntu 11.10
  2.  ???
  3.  Upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04

  Expected:  Successful upgrade with no errors
  Actual:  Upgrade hits this error - "package colord 0.1.16-2 failed to 
install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script

  [Workaround]
sudo delgroup scanner
sudo apt-get install -f

2012-10-22 Thread montio
Hello Berend,

thank you for your hint with the scanner group.

I have deleted the scanner group and reinstalled colord and I had no
trouble anymore.
Also after updating from Kubuntu 12.04 - 12.10 I had no problems.

Once again, thank you.

Bye Martin

Title:
  package colord 0.1.16-2 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage:
  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
  status 1

Status in “colord” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “colord” source package in Precise:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Upgrades from 11.10 to 12.04 fail indicating exit status 1 from 
installing/upgrading colord.

  [Discussion]
  /var/lib/dpkg/info/colord.postinst does not produce helpful error messages 
even if run manually.  But the script is trying to run this command:

addgroup --quiet --system scanner

  Running it without the --quiet option reveals the error:

sudo addgroup --system scanner
addgroup: The group `scanner' already exists and is not a system group. 
Exiting.

  So there's the problem: the group is already there but is not a system
  group. Taking a look at the group I see:

  $ grep scanner /etc/group
  scanner:x:1001:colord

  Indeed it is not a system group, and it only seems to be used by
  colord.

  [Test Case]
  1.  Install Ubuntu 11.10
  2.  ???
  3.  Upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04

  Expected:  Successful upgrade with no errors
  Actual:  Upgrade hits this error - package colord 0.1.16-2 failed to 
install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script 
returned error exit status 1

  [Workaround]
sudo delgroup scanner
sudo apt-get install -f

  [Original Report]
  No idea. The installation was going on and suddenly this message appears.
