Bug#780585: Mysterious failure to update/install packages
Hi! Package: dpkg Version: 1.17.23 Severity: normal I had to test something quickly in an older sid chroot (hence the many not updated packages) and updating libgcc1 + libc6 failed without clear reason why. Running dpkg --configure -a configured the 2 packages just fine. I'm unsure what went wrong there. Is dpkg screwing up the order in which packages get configured or is apt-get? Or what ios going on there? dpkg does what it is told, I'm assuming some problem in apt, or its invocation. I've been bitten by this bug during the libc6:amd64|i386 update yesterday. Here is what aptitude has to say: Retrieving bug reports... Done Parsing Found/Fixed information... Done Reading changelogs... Done Preconfiguring packages ... dpkg: error processing package libc6:amd64 (--configure): package libc6:amd64 2.19-17 cannot be configured because libc6:i386 is at a different version (2.19-15) dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of apt: apt depends on libc6 (= 2.15); however: Package libc6:amd64 is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing package apt (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: libc6:amd64 apt E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) Failed to perform requested operation on package.
