[Bug 773850] Re: tzdata fails to upgrade
tzdata no longer ships hardlinks, so whatever mysterious failure this was wouldn't be reproducible.

[Bug 773850] Re: tzdata fails to upgrade
What kernel (version & package) do you use? What is the version of libc6 on your system? What is the version of dpkg? The error messages is strange, it indicates that a simple open() call failed with EINVAL which is documented this way: EINVAL The implementation does not support synchronized I/O for this file. EINVAL The value of the oflag argument is not valid. And the flags for the open call are simple: fd = open(fnamenewvb.buf, (O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_WRONLY), 0); The problem is probably not at the dpkg level, it must be lower in the stack, libc6 or kernel. Maybe a security module is behaving badly? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773850 Title: tzdata fails to upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tzdata/+bug/773850/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Chris, indeed this does not look like a dupe of that bug. My apologies, I was too quick in making that determination.

[Bug 773850] Re: tzdata fails to upgrade
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 614587 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/614587 I s that really the same bug? This is a completely different pkg version and the upgrade fails during unpacking the pkg rather than in a post- processing step. After trying to get this pkg to upgrade for several hours I was forced to give up and leave my system in it's current state. I realized that whatever causes this is dependent on conditions that aren't universal. The same upgrade was processed fine on my desktop system but on this server install it fails, no matter how I try to work around it, or re- download the pkg. I even manually downloaded the pkg from Launchpad and used dpkg to manually install it but had the same results - the only difference being that it failed on a different country record (not America/Manaus). I've tried to make sure this isn't something else wrong on my system. It's definitely not out-of-space or lack of permissions (using sudo). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773850 Title: tzdata fails to upgrade -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
