Public bug reported: When upgrading to oneiric with sane-utils and rlinetd installed:
Setting up sane-utils (1.0.22-2ubuntu2) ... *** WARNING: ucf was run from a maintainer script that uses debconf, but the script did not pass --debconf-ok to ucf. The maintainer script should be fixed to not stop debconf before calling ucf, and pass it this parameter. For now, ucf will revert to using old-style, non-debconf prompting. Ugh! Please inform the package maintainer about this problem. Need debconf to interact dpkg: error processing sane-utils (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 The problem is that sane-utils.postinst activates debconf and then calls update-inetd, which in turn calls ucf in an unsupported way. As it is, I cannot upgrade to oneiric with rlinetd and any package with a similar postinst script to that of sane-utils installed. ** Affects: rlinetd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - sane-utils ucf invocation error in postinst script + rlinetd's update-inetd fails if invoked from a maint script using debconf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877453 Title: rlinetd's update-inetd fails if invoked from a maint script using debconf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rlinetd/+bug/877453/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
