Using Ubuntu 12.0.4 LTS I'm facing this issue for some days now. Since I'm working remotely some installation tends to freeze not reacting on Ctrl+C, Ctrl+D or anything like that. So I have to drop the connection more and more frequently.
I'm currently developing script for automatically installing a larger software consisting of several apt packages involved and fetched into system automatically. So I'm using debconf-set-selections to prevent several interactions of debconf due to repeatedly asking for equivalent information otherwise. Maybe this has corrupted debconf databases and so I'm also interested in opportunities for doing integration tests and diagnostics on debconf databases Here is output seen on installing single packages such as nslcd: Use of uninitialized value $value in substitution (s///) at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Format/822.pm line 65, <$fh> line 1. Use of uninitialized value $value in substitution (s///) at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Format/822.pm line 65, <$fh> line 2. Use of uninitialized value $value in substitution (s///) at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Format/822.pm line 65, <$fh> line 3. Use of uninitialized value $item in hash element at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/DbDriver/Pipe.pm line 47, <$fh> chunk 3. Upgraded system recently. Running "sudo apt-get install nslcd" currently deadlocks after triggering man-db. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/13130 Title: Debconf uninitialized variable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/13130/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
