I don't believe it's an exact duplicate. I received the same error msg
described above. Ensuring the TFTP_DIRECTORY existed did not fix the
problem.
To diagnose it further, I examined file /var/lib/dpkg/info/tftpd-hpa.postrm On
or about line 22 I deleted the --quiet so it now reads:
deluser --system ${TFTP_USERNAME}
Now when I try to remove the tftpd-hpa package, the error dump includes The
user `nobody' is not a system user. Exiting.
This suggests that the postrm script is erroneously trying to remove the
'nobody' user, which is what I had set TFTP_USERNAME to in the tftpd-hpa
config file.
I next commented out the deluser ... line. The package removal now
proceeds without errors.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1010891 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010891 thanks for submitting this bug. I believe it's a duplicate of 1010891, so will mark it as such. To work around this, i believe you should be able to do sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/tftpboot then re-try. (If /etc/default/tftpd-hpa sets TFTP_DIRECTORY to something other than /var/lib/tftpboot, then create that directory instead). ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1010891 package tftpd-hpa 5.2-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: Unterprozess installiertes post-removal-Skript gab den Fehlerwert 1 zurück -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to tftp-hpa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010504 Title: package tftpd-hpa 5.2-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tftp-hpa/+bug/1010504/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
