I've had a problem with a broken ecryptfs-utils that I tried to remove. The normal sudo apt-get remove ecryptfs-utils fails as does sudo apt-get -f install.
Instead I used the following sequence which seemed to have removed the necessary parts and put the update manager back to normal: Command Sequence: (VERY CAREFUL TYPING PLEASE) cd /var/lib/dpkg/info sudo rm ecryptfs-utils.* sudo dpkg --remove ecryptfs-utils To make sure that the package manager is working okay, start it with: sudo upate-manager -d and make it check for updates. This worked for me. I suspect that ecryptfs-utils is broken for Lucid for now. Some bug fixes are apparently in the works. -- ecryptfs-utils failed to upgrade (prerm ERROR: Cannot remove ecryptfs-utils, as it appears to be in use) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516417 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
