Hello, I ran into a problem while performing an "apt-get upgrade" on my computer over a month ago. The error message I received was as follows:
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/debconf_1.0.00_all.deb (--unpack): files list file for package `tk8.3' contains empty filename Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/debconf_1.0.00_all.deb Processing was halted because there were too many errors. E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I now get the same error whenever I try to upgrade, and I am having other problems in addition, for example while trying to add a user, I receive the following: lurchy:~# useradd -d /home/fakeuser -s /usr/bin/ksh -c "Fake User" -m fakeuser Segmentation fault or... lurchy:~# adduser Enter a username to add: fakeuser Adding user fakeuser... Adding new group fakeuser (1003). Adding new user fakeuser (1003) with group fakeuser. adduser: `useradd -d /home/fakeuser -g fakeuser -s /bin/bash -u 1003 fakeuser' exited from signal 11. Aborting. Cleaning up. Removing user `fakeuser'. userdel: user fakeuser does not exist Removing group `fakeuser'. Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dynamic-link.h: 62: elf_get_dynamic_info: Assertion `! "bad dynamic tag"' failed! lurchy:~# I can add users by editing the appropriate files, but I don't really think I should be getting nasty errors for something like this. I posted this problem on this list about a month ago and received no response, so if I am asking in the wrong place please let me know what would be the appropriate forum. Thanks in advance, Anthony
