Hi Martin, if no one else is seeing this, and you can't reproduce it, it is entirely possible that I'd added a symlink at some point to test something and failed to remove it. If that looks likely from the current state, then I'm happy to remove whichever symlink is incorrect and update my system again :) Sorry for possibly having wasted your time :/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to glib2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/854622 Title: Could not install libglib2.0 Status in “glib2.0” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “glib2.0” source package in Oneiric: Triaged Status in “update-manager” source package in Oneiric: Invalid Bug description: While upgrading another laptop, during the process I got a dialog saying: http://paste.ubuntu.com/693682/ After the upgrade finished I saw in the update manager terminal window: Exception during pm.DoInstall(): E:Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1), and it did automatically prompt me to create a bug, but I had to reboot to finish the upgrade get a network connection.

Steve Langasek [2011-09-30 5:37 -]: > So glib2.0 needs to clean up its historic mis-migration. Hmm, the preinst files do if [ "$1" = "upgrade" ] && dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt-nl 2.27.5-2; then rm -f /usr/share/doc/libglib2.0-dev fi I. e. correctly use lt-nl (thus don't fire on fresh installs), and also shouldn't affect natty upgrades, and don't create any symlinks. Given that this was reproduced using a natty install and oneiric upgrade, I don't see how this would introduce this bug. But maybe I'm missing something here? debian/* doesn't use "ln" anywhere, and there is just one *.links for gtk-doc. The natty package is identical in all those regards. Right now I'm really stumped how this symlink ever actually got created.
