I think this is the result of having a broken /usr/local/bin/octave-3.2.2 before installing the package. For example this will break the install:
$ sudo ln -s /bin/false /usr/local/bin/octave-3.2.2 $ sudo apt-get install octave3.2 This fails with: dpkg: error processing octave3.2 (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Removing the link allows install to succeed. $ sudo rm /usr/local/bin/octave-3.2.2 $ sudo apt-get install octave3.2 -- octave3.2 fails to install via apt-get with libumfpack.so.3.2.0 error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/465005 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
