I tried several times to run the 'apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' without success, interspersed with the 'apt-get -f install', all to no avail.
It is definitely some sort of file corruption. I have now managed to copy the two files from another source, and completed the install of the desktop. The system was a fresh install of the 7.10 server edition, followed by the install of the desktop which failed. The Server CD was set up as a resource and requested during the desktop install, but I amnot sure whether the files were copied from the CD or the internet. I had performed the check of the CD after burning it. What would have been nice is if there was some way of forcing the files to be removed or refreshed. Anyway, I copied replacements of the files from another machine and was able to complete successfully the install. thanks -- Gutsy Package corruptions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155176 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
