As agreed with Daniel on IRC, I'm uploading version 0.001-3.1ubuntu1.1
to dapper-proposed.
** Changed in: python-uncertainities (Ubuntu Dapper)
Assignee: (unassigned) => Luca Falavigna (dktrkranz)
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: python-uncertainities
On a fresh install of Dapper Drake (i386), installed from the live DVD:
$ sudo aptitude install python-uncertainities
...
Setting up python-uncertainities (0.001-3.1ubuntu1) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/python-uncertainities.postinst: line 20:
/usr/bin/python2.3: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing python-uncertainities (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
python-uncertainities
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install. Trying to recover:
Setting up python-uncertainities (0.001-3.1ubuntu1) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/python-uncertainities.postinst: line 20:
/usr/bin/python2.3: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing python-uncertainities (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
The package claims Depends: on python2.4, but installs into
/usr/lib/python2.3. The postinst checks whether it should run python2.3
or python2.4, or whatever, by using dpkg --listfiles and seeing what
python directory it uses.
I guess a package with a typo in its name doesn't have much to live up
to...
+
+ TEST CASE:
+ 1) Install python-uncertainities
+ 2) You will get the above error in postinst phase
+
+ EXPECTED RESULTS:
+ Package must install sanely
