[Bug 67913] Re: pound postinst breaks during dapper to edgy dist-upgrade
From what I understand I'd say it's a shortcoming because it kills the upgrade and leaves the user with a potentially unstable system. I would expect that the upgrade would acknowledge it couldn't process a given package and give the user the option to exclude/remove the package and finish the upgrade. -- pound postinst breaks during dapper to edgy dist-upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/67913 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 67913] Re: pound postinst breaks during dapper to edgy dist-upgrade
Here is my pound config file. Having tried to launch it manually from the command-line and in verbose mode, it seems that pound has problem parsing it. Looking in the pound man page, I've found that the configuration file syntax has change. I'll modify it until Pound can be started and then I'll attach it. It's a pity that the dist-upgrade I've made hasn't asked me to change my config file before failing. It looks now clear that the error was due to pound not being able to be started back by the postinstall script. ** Attachment added: old pound config http://librarian.launchpad.net/4934596/pound.cfg -- pound postinst breaks during dapper to edgy dist-upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/67913 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 67913] Re: pound postinst breaks during dapper to edgy dist-upgrade
Wow, that's a change of syntax! I can understand that the package scripts cannot change this file automatically. But then, why not showing the end-user a screen with the new default config file and asking whether this new file should replace the old one. (Maybe I'm expecting too much but I must admit that I've worked a long time with Gentoo which has wonderful, yet simple, tools and procedures to resolve this kind of problem easily.) Anyway, thanks for tackling my bug so fast. ** Attachment added: pound config diff http://librarian.launchpad.net/4934630/pound.cfg.patch -- pound postinst breaks during dapper to edgy dist-upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/67913 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for this added information. This is really no shortcoming of the ubuntu packaging tools in use, but a bug in the package itself. -- pound postinst breaks during dapper to edgy dist-upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/67913 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 67913] Re: pound postinst breaks during dapper to edgy dist-upgrade
I tried to reproduce this on a stock pound install/upgrade and was unable to reproduce it. Is this maybe releated to some customization in pounds config? ** Changed in: pound (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Needs Info -- pound postinst breaks during dapper to edgy dist-upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/67913 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
