[Bug 104553] Re: upgrade failed when fontconfig cache dirs are newer than system date
I think that this bug is quite severe. Ubuntu wants to be a distribution suitable for beginners. But beginners will have absolutely no idea what went wrong and how they can fix it, when they install Gutsy, install the software updates, and the package management breaks.

[Bug 104553] Re: upgrade failed when fontconfig cache dirs are newer than system date
This bug is still very simple to reproduce - simply do a fresh Gutsy install, then immediately apply all updates. ttf-opensymbol will fail, causing all openoffice packages (15 more) to also fail, due to dependency problems. A really frustrating few minutes while I sorted this out, especially as the error message is so unhelpful, and apt kept the packages in a weird cache - I couldn't try to force a repeat of the update, but as soon as I installed an unrelated package, all the openoffice packages attempted (and failed, until I solved the problem) again. -- upgrade failed when fontconfig cache dirs are newer than system date https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104553 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 104553] Re: upgrade failed when fontconfig cache dirs are newer than system date
Actually I had this problem today with a fresh Gutsy installation on a PC. It is not my machine, so I can't get more information than I will give below. Note, that I installed Gutsy a few weeks ago, without problems, but with the Live CD. 1. Windows XP was already installed. 2. Used the alternate Gutsy Install CD. 3. There was already a Dapper installation on the partition used, but I manually rearranged the partitions. 1.5 GB Swap, 10 GB root and the 60 GB home. Windows NTFS partitions untouched. So overwriting the previous installation 4. Installation went fine. 5. Booting went fine. 6. Installing the upgrades (after doing an extra update) worked until the configuration of ttf-opensymbol. It gave exactly the same problem as the original poster. It also refused the upgrade the OOo packages, because of dependence of the most recent ttf-opensymbol. 7. After reading the forums and launchpad, I found out very quickly that I had do a sudo touch on all above directories that gave failed to write cache. 8. Problem fixed. I don't know if there is an other bug report I should give this information. Is so, please which one?

[Bug 104553] Re: upgrade failed when fontconfig cache dirs are newer than system date
The debian bug claims that the problem is fixed in the current fontconfig. If someone can come up with a way to reproduce the problem (preferable in a chroot) that would be much appreciated. I would like to fix the problem in fontconfig itself instead of in the postinst script because we would have to duplicate the fix in the postinst script for every font package. If you look for a way to reproduce it, then pythons os.utime() may be useful to set mtime and atime of dirs/files. Best if probably to try to reproduce it on feisty or edgy first and then we can check if it affects newer versions still.

Re: [Bug 104553] Re: upgrade failed when fontconfig cache dirs are newer than system date
It's caused by a feature of the cd installer, to do with UTC. However I feel everyone is in agreement that OOo should be able to continue in the event of this feature. It's just that, if this is caused by anything other than the cd installer, then it's probably HDD corruption, and its probably a good idea for it to fail like it does. Any other thoughts?

I can also confirm this bug on a fresh gutsy install. After the installation, I was prompted to install available updates. The update of several openoffice.org-packages failed because of this bug. I got a message from update-manager that not all updates could be installed. I think that this is a really bad first impression for new users. There is nothing fancy involved here, just a normal install and a normal update via update-manager. And the user is confronted with a system error that he or she doesn't know how to solve, leaving the computer in a possibly unusable state (according to the reports from Luca, luckily I did't reboot with the packages broken).

Probably of little use, but I thought I'd report what I think is a similar problem I encountered when upgrading from Feisty to Gutsy. The Feisty was a fresh install, only updated. The dist. upgrade GUI terminated while installing the Gutsy packages. In a terminal I ran apt-get update and upgrade. The output is attached.

Just finished a fresh install I started before finding this thread, and I can confirm...

Another solution to this problem, would be to wait (your GMT offset) between installing and your first boot of the system. Or to fiddle with your system clock.

[Bug 104553] Re: upgrade failed when fontconfig cache dirs are newer than system date
I had the same problem after installing xubuntu, it was already complaining during installation. The fix from reed worked partially,but there were some directories missing in cache_fail_folder_list.txt I attached the file that worked for me. ** Attachment added: cache_fail_folder_list.txt http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8038453/cache_fail_folder_list.txt -- upgrade failed when fontconfig cache dirs are newer than system date https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
