Dear all, I had a power failure while I was away and when I came back the boot failed, asking to run fsck manually, which I did.
*Many* errors where fixed and I could reboot to what it seems to be a normal session, except I cannot "dist-upgrade" or "upgrade" (I'm on sid, BTW): --------------------- [snip] Extracting templates from packages: 100% Preconfiguring packages ...

I can see two processes running: -------------------- # psf apt 3988 pts/5 S+ 0:23 apt-get dist-upgrade 4411 pts/14 Ss+ 0:00 /usr/bin/dpkg --status-fd 43 --unpack --auto-deconfigure /var/cache/apt/archives/bsdutils_1%3a2.25.2-6_amd64.deb ------------------- dpkg.log does not help: ------------------- # cat /var/log/dpkg.log 2015-04-06 02:55:55 startup archives unpack 2015-04-06 03:01:22 startup archives unpack ------------------- I could not find anything wrong in other logs. I've also tried "apt-get clean", to redownload the files, as well as things like "apt-get -f install/dist-upgrade", "dpkg --configure -a", moving /var/lib/apt/lists/ and /var/lib/dpkg/status. Nothing has worked so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Best to all, Luis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
