Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: apparmor
I am trying to install the Bynari neonInsight mail server on ubuntu
8.04. Their software will not install if AppArmor is enabled. I tried to
disable AppArmor using Synaptic Package Manager, It may not be an
AppArmor bug, but possibly a bug with another package. I get the
following error:
Preconfiguring packages ...
(Reading database ... dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/iputils-ping_3%3a20071127-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
files list file for package `iputils-arping' contains empty filename
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/iputils-ping_3%3a20071127-1_amd64.deb
Processing was halted because there were too many errors.
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install. Trying to recover:
I performed a Google search for a workaround, but I could not find one
so far.
Per the directions below:
