This seems to be a tricky problem to reproduce. I believe the issue is that the package init script (in both old and new versions) calls log_daemon_msg under set -e, on the assumption that it will not fail; but these auto-test environments appear to run without $TERM set, which causes the logging functions in /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh to fail.
I can't reproduce the exact error message with the hardy version of lsb- base and ncurses-bin, but it's close enough that I think this is where the trouble lies. Is it reasonable to require these maintainer scripts to run successfully when TERM is unset? Does this happen in practice on user machines? -- autopkgtest gutsy mdadm amd64: erroneous package! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/141625 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
