I suspect this is a manifestation of https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=826300
The bug was long ago fixed, but the nature of the bug would mean re- bootstrapping is needed, i'm not sure if there still exists a ubuntu archive for 32-bit powerpc and if-so who controls it. There certainly doesn't seem to be any mention of 32-bit powerpc on launchpad for recent releases. If you just want to fix the problem locally, then you may be able to use the 3.0.0+dfsg-8 packages from snapshot.debian.org ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #826300 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=826300 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1841982 Title: package fp-compiler-3.0.0 3.0.0+dfsg-2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 217 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fpc/+bug/1841982/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
