[Touch-packages] [Bug 1570310] Re: package systemd 229-4ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 2
I have encountered this occasionally over several years, and have just had it happen on an install of Ubuntu 16.10 (clean install of 16.10, not upgraded from an earlier version). The postinst script for systemd does addgroup --system systemd-journal This gives the error addgroup: The group `systemd-journal' already exists and is not a system group. Exiting. and package install fails. $ dpkg -l systemd ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-==---= iF systemd231-9ubuntu3 amd64system and service manager The problem is that addgroup will return 0 for --system if the group exists and the gid is between FIRST_SYSTEM_GID and LAST_SYSTEM_GID, but these are not set in the default /etc/adduser.conf file, so 'addgroup --system systemd-journal' returns 1 instead: # addgroup --system systemd-journal addgroup: The group `systemd-journal' already exists and is not a system group. Exiting. # echo $? 1 # echo 'FIRST_SYSTEM_GID=50' >> /etc/adduser.conf # echo 'LAST_SYSTEM_GID=300' >> /etc/adduser.conf # addgroup --system systemd-journal addgroup: The group `systemd-journal' already exists as a system group. Exiting. # echo $? 0 The postinst script should be modified to either test if the group already exists (and not rely on addgroup to do it silently), or do "addgroup --system systemd-journal || true" to ignore errors from addgroup. ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1570310 Title: package systemd 229-4ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 2 Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I was upgrading from 15.10 to 16.04 when this error occur.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1570310] Re: package systemd 229-4ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 2
@pitti, This is probably not useful, since I just ran aptitude as soon as the upgrade to 16 completed with errors, and had it fix the broken packages (with no problems). So systemd seems to be installed fine for me too, now. Just in case there is some clue, though, here is the current output from the two debug commands you mentioned: steven@goliath:~$ sudo sed -i '2 s/^.*/set -x/' /var/lib/dpkg/info/systemd.prerm steven@goliath:~$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall systemd Reading package lists...

I don't know if it was in the log that was generated, but the error said that systemd package had a dependency on an ubuntu21-something package, while ubuntu23-something was installed.

systemd.prerm does not do much really, so I figure it's one of the dpkg- maintscript-helper mv_conffile calls that failed. Can you please enable some debugging with sudo sed -i '2 s/^.*/set -x/' /var/lib/dpkg/info/systemd.prerm sudo apt-get install --reinstall systemd and see if you still get this error?
