[Bug 274565] Re: error updating gnomes-game-data

2008-11-03 Thread Greg Unger
@ Eric:

what if you were to create empty text files at /usr/share/gconf/schemas
for every file apt-get says it can't find.  would you be able to
uninstall gnome-games-data then?

Re: [Bug 274565] Re: error updating gnomes-game-data

2008-11-03 Thread Eric Swenson
I tried this, and it didn't work. The reason is that these are expected to
be XML schemas, and a zero-length file isn't a valid XML file. So the
removal process still fails.
I did figure out how to uninstall gnome-games-data, however. I simply found
where the pre-remove script was, and edited to remove the offending line.
 The pre-removal script was located in:

 /var/lib/dpkg/info/gnome-games-data.prerm

This script was calling the gconf-schemas command with non-existent schemas.
 Commenting out this line (I actually put an echo at the start of the
offending line) allowed me to do an:

   apt-get remove gnome-games-data

successfully.  Now I no longer get errors when installing/uninstalling other
packages.

2008-11-02 Thread Eric Swenson
I'm having a similar problem and I'm quite certain it is not a file
system problem (fsck is happy).  I think there is something wrong with
the pre/post installation scripts for the gnome-games-data package.
Here is the output from an attempt to install the package:

@Greg: The error message indicates that you might have a filesystem
error on your computer. Could you please run a filesystem check
(availabe in the ubuntu rescue mode) and a momory check (availabe start
startup with the ESC key) and check if those report no error?

the error seems to indicate a local installation issue or local changes,
that's not a package bug, changing to an user question
