Public bug reported:
I ran into a bunch of problems upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04. During the
"Installing the ugprades" part of the setup procedure, I got a ton of
errors.
The very first one was titled "Could not install 'libdb4.6'" and had the
detailed message "no package named `libdb4.6' is installed, cannot
configure".
Then what followed were a number of error dialogs for other packages
that popped up afterward, all with the detailed message "dependency
problems - leaving unconfigured." I'm guessing they were dependent on
libdb4.6's successful installation. These were the packages:
- libpam-modules
- login
- passwd
- libuuid1
- e2fsprogs
- python2.5
- python
Then I saw "Could not install '/var/cache/apt/archives/xserver-
xorg_1%3a7.3+10ubuntu10_all.deb'" with the detailed message "pre-
dependency problem - not installing xserver-xorg."
Then I saw a stream of other errors:
- package perl-modules is already installed and configured
- package libnewt0.52 is already installed and configured
- package whiptail is already installed and configured
- package defoma is already installed and configured
- package gsfonts is already installed and configured
- package ttf-dejavu-extra is already installed and configured
- package ttf-dejavu is already installed and configured
- package ucf is already installed and configured
- package fontconfig-config is already installed and configured
- package libexpat1 is already installed and configured
- package libfontconfig1 is already installed and configured
Then some more of the "dependency problems - leaving unconfigured":
- libsasl2-2
- libldap-2.4-2
- ssl-cert
- cupsys
- libsasl2-modules
For some time, I haven't seen any errors, so I'm submitting this for
now.
