Sorry about not keeping up on this, had to give up the system this was happening as a loaner for a little bit.
I'm attaching the last term.log file where this was failing. I finally got around it by looking at the installed gconf stuff to come up with this: dpkg --purge --force-depends libgconf-2.4 libgconf-2.6-1c2 libgconf2.0-cil libgconf2-4 gconf-service-backend gconf-service gconf- defaults-service gconf2-common gconf2 : after that I was able to do 'apt-get -f install' and the necessarry gconf stuff was pulled in and installed correctly. ** Attachment added: "term.log.1.gz" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gconf/+bug/948294/+attachment/3074198/+files/term.log.1.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/948294 Title: package gconf2 3.2.3-3ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 250 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gconf/+bug/948294/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
