[Bug 234498] Re: Cannot uninstall irmp3 from system
As they say, if its broken, betta fix it urself... FROM :http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-333992.htmlon doodled-uninstall: found this 1-liner gem: I managed to fix it myself by changing invoke-rc.d doodled stop || exit $? to /bin/true || exit $? in var/lib/dpkg/info/doodled.prerm and removing some of the leftover files manualy. Which I modified for irmp3 thus: a) Create backup: sudo cp /var/lib/dpkg/info/irmp3.prerm /var/lib/dpkg/info/irmp3.prerm.bk b) as sudo: Edit the file: /var/lib/dpkg/info/irmp3.prerm c) change the line: invoke-rc.d irmp3 stop || exit $? to:/bin/true || exit $? d) save uninstall irmp3 e) if it uninstalls, then remove the backup file: sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/irmp3.prerm.bk Worked 4 me hope this helps someone else! -- Cannot uninstall irmp3 from system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234498 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 234498] Re: Cannot uninstall irmp3 from system
I can confirm this... I have exactly the same thing (subprocess new pre- removal script returned error) which re-occurs with each sypnaptic run. I reported it with [Bug 292046] 11/01/08 Michael Vogt asked for more information (11/03/08) ... which I forwarded. Jean-Baptiste Lallement closed the bug 11/22/2008 We are closing this bug report because it lacks the information we need to investigate the problem, as described in the previous comments. Please reopen it if you can give us the missing information, and don't hesitate to submit bug reports in the future. To reopen the bug report you can click on the current status, under the Status column, and change the Status back to New. Thanks again! ** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Invalid Still, the funny thing is that a) the bug team got rid of 1 more bug (by closing it) b) the problem still persists on my PC c) I am not alone ;) d) there were no previous comments as mentioned above.
