Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: language-support-fr

Hello,

We discover first this bug while upgrading gutsy to hardy
(cf https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/langpack-locales/+bug/249340 )

Seems this bug is also comming into gutsy : one of our computers completly 
crashes its update on localdef, so that we can't do anything.
the only thing we could do to pass away was to
- reboot (processes coulnd't be killed, event with kill -9 !)
- remove postinst file... which isn't really nice.

OS informations :
architecture => i386
kernelrelease => 2.6.22-15-generic
lsbdistdescription => Ubuntu 7.10
processor0 => Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.60GHz

I don't know for now if it's only on this computer, and if it's only for
this package; Seems that language-pack-fr-base and language-pack-fr also
crashed.


Thanks in advance for workaround/fixe

Regards

C.
