Public bug reported: Binary package hint: debconf
This first happened the other day (2010-06-08), but I didn't notice the error window was from debconf, and hence I reported it for Update Mgr. ("openoffice.org-emailmerge security update fails", Bug #591378 ) The earlier attempt to update openoffice.org-emailmerge failed with the same error message this time: "OpenOffice.org running! / OpenOffice.org is running right now. A running OpenOffice.org makes extension (de-)registration not possible and it causes problems with (de-)registering components. Please close OpenOffice.org (including an eventually running Quickstarter)." [As before, Openoffice.org was NOT running. There were 2 or 3 other Openoffice.org updates on the first attempt, and all were successful.] A further message window appeared: "An error occurred The following details are provided: E: /var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-emailmerge_1%3a3.1.1-5ubuntu1.2_all.deb: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1" The following is description of the particular update, in case it is important.
