Hi Chris, thanks for your bug-report, but i think, it is not the same bug. The update of dpkg failed. I don't know the reason (IOError? maybe a harddisk problem?) ----- Preparing to replace dpkg 1.13.24ubuntu6 (using .../dpkg_1.14.5ubuntu16_i386.deb) ... Unpacking replacement dpkg ... i386.deb) ... dpkg-deb (subprocess): error in buffer_read(stream): failed to write to pipe in copy: Input/output error dpkg-deb: subprocess paste returned error exit status 2 dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/dpkg_1.14.5ubuntu16_i386.deb (--unpack): short read in buffer_copy (backend dpkg-deb during `./usr/share/locale/sk/LC_MESSAGES/dpkg.mo') Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/dpkg_1.14.5ubuntu16_i386.deb ----
Now you still have the old dpkg which has no clue how to handle triggers. First thing you have to do is to update your dpkg-package. This will fail because of the trigger in `/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0006'. To get it working again, you can try to remove the line > Triggers-Pending: ldconfig and replace the line > Status: install ok triggers-pending by > Status: install ok installed now you can run > dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/dpkg_1.14.5ubuntu16_i386.deb > apt-get --reinstall install libc6 > dpkg --configure -a > apt-get dist-upgrade -- Update to gutsy failed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/146943 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
