Public bug reported: Binary package hint: lubuntu-default-settings
In the latest upgrade of lubuntu-default-settings for Lucid (version 0.5), I got the error described in the bug report summary. Uninstalling and re-installing didn't help. It seems to be a missing target for a symlink. Here is a log of an installation after removal: l...@grisell:~$ sudo apt-get install lubuntu-default-settings Reading package lists...
