Ok, so this is what fixed it for me: removing /usr/share/kvm made package installable. The situation is like this: - in /usr/share "kvm" is a symbolic link to "qemu" which is a real directory - kvm-pxe installs files into "/usr/share/kvm" and symlinks into /usr/share/qemu, thus trying to overwrite files it just installed
Not sure why it worked on my "fresh" Lucid system (the situation seems to be identical), but links definitely need to go out of the kvm-pxe package. -- package kvm-pxe 5.4.4-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: unable to open '/usr/share/kvm/pxe-e1000.bin.dpkg-new': No such file or directory / deferred fsync failed due to non-existent file .dpkg-new https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574524 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
