[Bug 1015567] Re: upgrade failed: mixed non-coinstallable and coinstallable package instances present

2013-01-09 Thread Adam Porter
This bug is not fixed!  I just tried to upgrade from Precise to Quantal.
do-release-upgrade failed for some reason, and now dpkg fails with:

dpkg: error: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 29257 package 
'odbcinst':
 mixed non-coinstallable and coinstallable package instances present

It won't LET me purge the package, because of that error!

dpkg:
  Installed: 1.16.7ubuntu6
  Candidate: 1.16.7ubuntu6
  Version table:
 *** 1.16.7ubuntu6 0
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

The Perl script linked in the bug description doesn't help--all it does
is tell me to purge that package with dpkg, which doesn't work!

I knew I shouldn't have tried to upgrade.  Every time I upgrade from one
Ubuntu release to another, I encounter a weird problem that is worse
than the last time I upgraded Ubuntu.

The worst part of all?  This bug has been on Launchpad for over 6
months, and was reported on the Debian lists last March, but it's still
not fixed, and Quantal was released like this!  I've been using Ubuntu
since Warty, and it didn't used to be like this!  What is happening to
Ubuntu?!

I tried dist-upgrade, but it failed too. Note it's not just Skype, it's 
libc6-dev and some other packages. 
Not sure if this is an appropriate place for discussions not related to the 
bug, but it all started when I upgraded to quantal and at this point I have no 
clue how to get out of this mess. 
any advice?

[Bug 1015567] Re: upgrade failed: mixed non-coinstallable and coinstallable package instances present

2012-09-28 Thread David Lang
Dmitrijs,

The problem is that people who tripped over this bug cannot use the
normal methods to upgrade to get the fix. We greatly appriciate that the
bug is now fixed so this won't trash everyone else's systems, but the
question is how to fix the systems that this bug already trashed.

I got out of it by editing /var/lib/dpkg/status to add an arch entry
when one wasn't present.

However, most people are not going to be comfortable doing that, so what
can they do?

I suspect that this is going to require downloading a fixed dpkg binary
from somewhere, and then running something with that to get the fix
properly.

I could find the package, download it, extract it, and replace the
binary, but there is probably a much cleaner way to do this, but it will
take someone who knows the debian packaging internals better than I do
to identify what is the minimum safe thing to do.

David Lang

2012-09-28 Thread Dmitrijs Ledkovs
I updated the bug description with recovery pointers.

** Description changed:

+ If you are affected by this bug, please do not email me personally for
+ support.
+ 
+ As suggested below, you can use the perl script from:
+ https://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2012/03/msg00045.html
+ 
+ In general, simply purge the packages that are have mixed non-
+ coinstallable and coinstallable package instances present.
+ 
+ Regards,
+ Dmitrijs.
+ 
+ 
+ 
  This is the bug which was warned about in [0]
  The easy analysis that you can run, with solutions proposed to recover is in 
[1]
  
  The minimal test case goes like this:
  1) install non-multiarch package for native architecture with some config 
files
  2) remove non-multiarch package (not purge)
  3) rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/lp1015567.list
  4) install multiarch package for foreign architecture, optionally with the 
same config file
  5) upgrading dpkg will result in:
   mixed non-coinstallable and coinstallable package instances present
  
  To easily reproduce the problem, I created a test case packages, see
  lp:~dmitrij.ledkov/+junk/lp1015567-test
  
  bzr branch lp:~dmitrij.ledkov/+junk/lp1015567-test
  cd lp1015567-test

  natty, oneiric, precise are suspected they may corrupt dpkg database as 
stated in [0]
  it is possible to use script from [1] to fix up the dpkg database
  Should this be done in dpkg or in update-manager?
  One solution is to mark the: rc non-ma package as ma:same
  Should this be backported to natty, oneiric, precise?

I'm not sure this is needed. The check is counting installed packages:
* if there is only 1 version of the package installed it can be either
multi/single
* if there is 2 version installed we can have:
- OK both multi-arch
- OK one multi-arch the other one confonly
- OK both are single and confonly simultaniously (FREAKY)
- FAIL both are single and installed (VERY FREAKY)

But I do hope that it is hard to trick dpkg into having two
non-multiarch versions of the same package installed simultaneously,
at the start of a dpkg run when it is trying to find slots in the
database. I guess we could make it safer and count {single:installed,
single:conf, multi:installed, multi:conf, total} and add more asserts.
To me that would be excessive.

I have run your patch through my test/mock script to recreate this
state and it worked ok. Thanks.

As per IRC, I have opened
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/1057367 to
actually upgrade the database as per original infinity's solution,
instead of keeping this workaround forever.

Dmitrijs.

So how do I fetch the newly fixed dpkg? I just tried

sudo apt-get install dpkg
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree   
Reading state information... Done
dpkg is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 ia32-libs : Depends: ia32-libs-multiarch but it is not installable
 libc6-dev : Depends: libc6 (= 2.15-0ubuntu17) but 2.15-0ubuntu10 is to be 
installed
 nspluginwrapper : Depends: nspluginviewer (= 1.4.4-0ubuntu4) but it is not 
installable
 skype : Depends: skype-bin but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a 
solution).

You do not seem to be affect by this dpkg bug, instead you have just regular

Try dist-upgrade, try removing and installing newer skype from skype.com, or

[Bug 1015567] Re: upgrade failed: mixed non-coinstallable and coinstallable package instances present

2012-09-26 Thread Tom K. C. Chiu
To add more details to such problem, I tried to revert the source as:

   sudo sed -i.dist 's,quantal,precise,' /etc/apt/sources.list

and then did the update and dist-upgrade.  The same error persist:

dpkg: error: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 75249 package

Changing source lines, does not downgrade packages. You are still
running dpkg from quantal.

I wonder if this is an OTT reaction to an old non-M-A package in the
config-files state.

[Bug 1015567] Re: upgrade failed: mixed non-coinstallable and coinstallable package instances present

2012-06-20 Thread Scott Moser
for arbitrary data point, I was not able to recreate this by doing the 
following in an instance of ami-dcab08b5 
(ubuntu-precise-daily-amd64-desktop-20120613).
  sudo apt-get --assume-yes update
  sudo apt-get --assume-yes dist-upgrade
  sudo apt-get --assume-yes install ia32-libs
  sudo sed -i.dist 's,precise,quantal,' /etc/apt/sources.list
  sudo apt-get --assume-yes update
  sudo apt-get --assume-yes dist-upgrade


So it would seem that there are other factors in play.

A filed bug 1015616 as a dup of this earlier, there someone found out that 
adding
Multi-Arch: same
to the amd64 package resolves this.
