Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/dash_0.5.5.1-2.3_i386.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I do a “sudo dpkg-reconfigure mksh” to set mksh/sh=false, then I have /bin/sh@ -> bash Now, the “sudo apt-get dist-upgrade” succeeds. Afterwards, mksh/sh=false and dash/sh=false still. Then I “sudo dpkg-reconfigure mksh” to set mksh/sh=true, but I still have /bin/sh@ -> bash I consider both of this (failure to upgrade dash if mksh is /bin/sh, and failure to set /bin/sh back to mksh after dash upgrade) bugs. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages dash depends on: ii debianutils 3.2 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii dpkg 1.15.3.1 Debian package management system ii libc6 2.9-23 GNU C Library: Shared libraries dash recommends no packages. dash suggests no packages. -- debconf information: * dash/sh: false -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
