I unfortunately closed the terminal window before realizing it was giving me an option to report it as a bug like this. Sorry. ProblemType: Package Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04 ErrorMessage: ErrorMessage: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: courier-imap-ssl 4.4.0-2ubuntu1 SourcePackage: courier Title: package courier-imap-ssl 4.4.0-2ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: Uname: Linux 2.6.27-14-generic i686 + + --- + + Update: I looked into the attached terminal log, and noticed the error + about "too many symlinks". This may have been caused by how I had + previously manually backed up the imapd.pem file. I believe I may have + created a symlink myself and then maybe this threw off the package + script on the update. Here are the files on my system: + + -rw------- 1 daemon root 2133 2009-07-04 01:14 imapd.pem + lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2009-03-08 23:27 imapd.pem.bak -> /etc/courier/imap + + So it makes sense why it thinks there are too many levels of symlinks. + I just can't remember if I had something to do with the pre-arrangement + of the files/symlink before the package update, or if it did this on its + own. + + One thing that could be done, however, would be for the script to check + whether the symlink is pointing to the target file the script is trying + to work on, that way it avoids this infinite recursion. -- package courier-imap-ssl 4.4.0-2ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395501 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
