@RedAcer I understand your confusion. I have to confess that I have doubts that RedSingularity's approach is the right one, and so I came up with different suggestions.
I now try to formulate clear instructions what you can do (if you trust me): Open a terminal enter the command gksudo gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/update-manager.prerm This will ask four your password, and then open an editor with a file open. In that file lcoate a line that read something like gconf-schemas --register /usr/share/gconf/schemas/update-manager.schemas and insert "# " at the beginning of that line (without quotes) to make the line read something like # gconf-schemas --register /usr/share/gconf/schemas/update- manager.schemas Close the editor saving the file In a terminal enter the command sudo apt-get --purge remove update-manager | tee ~/Desktop/Purge2 and append the resulting Purge2 file here again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/697568 Title: package update-manager 1:0.134.11 [modified: usr/share/gconf/schemas /update-manager.schemas] failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
