Public bug reported: I dont know why. But since the last update the software center is failing. I think the problem is mainly due to python-samba. I feel like their scripts are made in python2.7 and default python being 3.5 in ubuntu 16.04 makes it unable to upgrade and crash other applications ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: software-center 16.01+16.04.20160420 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-22.40-generic 4.4.8 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-22-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: wl ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri May 20 14:22:23 2016 ErrorMessage: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-01-24 (117 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140722.2) PackageArchitecture: all RelatedPackageVersions: dpkg 1.18.4ubuntu1.1 apt 1.2.10ubuntu1 SourcePackage: software-center Title: package software-center 16.01+16.04.20160420 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to xenial on 2016-04-28 (22 days ago) ** Affects: software-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-package xenial -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to software-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1584339 Title: package software-center 16.01+16.04.20160420 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 Status in software-center package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I dont know why.
