Re: [Bug 512096] Re: [MASTER] Exec format error : package failed to install/remove : installation/removal script returned error exit status 2
Good Morning I am trying to follow the work around instructions but not having full success yet. I am using libglew1.5 to replace PACKAGE and that works fine what do I use to replace PACKAGE_VERSION?? I tried 1.5.2.0ubuntu1 but that doesn't seem to work Cheers chipppy On Tue, 2010-07-06 at 15:30 +, enguerran wrote: > ** Description changed: > > Under some conditions package installation/upgrade/removal fails with > the following error: > > -- Error during installation -- > Setting up screenlets (0.1.2-7) ... > dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute installed post-installation script: > Exec format error > dpkg: error processing screenlets (--configure): >subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 > > -- Error during removal -- > Removing gnome-do ... > dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute installed pre-removal script: Exec > format error > dpkg: error processing gnome-do (--purge): >subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 2 > > This error occurs when one of the installation or removal scripts > (/var/lib/dpkg/info/PACKAGE.p*) is empty or corrupted. > > == HOW TO REPRODUCE == > Install a package and emulates a system crash before 30 seconds: > # apt-get install hello; sleep 20; echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger > [simulates a system crash] > After reboot both installation and removal scripts are 0 bytes.
