Package: r-cran-psy
Version: 0.70-1
I was doing dist-upgrade on Sparc64 to Etch and when apt reached
r-cran-psy, it threw following errors:
Preparing to replace r-cran-psy 0.70-1 (using .../r-cran-psy_0.70-2_all.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement r-cran-psy ...
/usr/bin/R: line 113: /usr/lib/R/etc/ldpaths: No such file or directory
dpkg: warning - old post-removal script returned error exit status 1
dpkg - trying script from the new package instead ...
dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/r-cran-psy_0.70-2_all.deb (--unpack):
there is no script in the new version of the package - giving up
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/r-cran-psy_0.70-2_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Workaround:
I tried to fiddle a little and could resolve the errors.
/usr/lib/R/etc/ldpaths should be a symlink to /etc/R/ldpaths while
/etc/R/ldpaths was not existing. I touched a blank file /etc/R/ldpaths
and upgrade worked fine.
Hope this helps.
regards,
Nishant

Version: 0.70-2
The removal of the obsolete postrm script in 0.70-2 fixed this problem
and it is no longer present in recent versions of the package.
