command: sudo apt-get install -f
relevant strace trace.log output:
read(21, "Segmentation fault\r\ndpkg: error "..., 1024) = 1024
write(1, "Segmentation fault\r\ndpkg: error "..., 1024) = 1024
read(19, "status: shared-mime-info : error"..., 1024) = 505
For some unknown reason, there was a dependency error, so I tried to fix with
the -f switch.
Segmentation Fault resulted.
Thank You!
