The log says: Preparing to replace libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 (using .../libc6_2.13-20ubuntu5_i386.deb) ... So you upgraded from 2.13-0ubuntu13 to 2.13-20ubuntu5. There's no way that libc-2.12.1.so was a packaged file... at least not coming from the libc6 package in version 2.13! In any case, it's not a dpkg bug... so the bug was badly assigned from the beginning. I'm reassigning to eglibc. But unless you can provide some explanation on how those files came onto your system, I fear that they won't be able to fix anything... ** Package changed: dpkg (Ubuntu) = eglibc (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/874030 Title: package libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package libc6 is already installed and configured To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/874030/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 874030] Re: package libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package libc6 is already installed and configured
This is something weird. I installed this machine around a month ago with a clean install of ubuntu 11.04. (via network install as this laptop does not have a cdrom) The only third party software installed is an application to manage a hdspa usb modem, but I've checked in the software package (tar.gz) and there is no libc included. I've then tried to upgrade the to 11.10 using the graphical update manager. The first try failed due to problem with the italian mirrror (the connection got dropped several times). I switched to another mirror and tried again and got a popup saying that the installation of libc have failed. So I let the installation complete and then tried to reinstall the libc by hand, getting the error stated in the log below. I can't track down from where the older libc come. Even the 11.04 release contained the 2.13 version of libc, so I can't explain how a 2.12 version was present on the system during the upgrade. I totally missed the old release number while I tried to debug the problem, so in any case this seems to be a isolated weird case and not a bug in the installer ** Changed in: eglibc (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/874030 Title: package libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package libc6 is already installed and configured To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/874030/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Raphael, how did you determined that I put an unofficial libc version on my machine? I'm really interested in how you can examine my laptop installation. ** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/874030 Title: package libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package libc6 is already installed and configured To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/874030/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Also, actually I managed to have a workaround for the problem, but I think that it's not normal that the upgrade of libc fails in such way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/874030 Title: package libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package libc6 is already installed and configured To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/874030/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The libc6 package was not successfully upgraded during the distribution upgrade process. Rerunning the install by hand using the command apt-get install --reinstall libc6 turned out that the upgrade failed because another copy of the libc was found in place A copy of the C library was found in an unexpected directory: '/lib/libc-2.12.1.so.back' It is not safe to upgrade the C library in this situation; please remove that copy of the C library or get it out of '/lib' and try again. so I had to move the followin files out of /lib libc-2.12.1.so libdl-2.12.1.so libm-2.12.1.so libpthread-2.12.1.so librt-2.12.1.so after that I successfully ran the reinstall command which also performed the following tasks (Reading database ... 246367 files and directories currently installed.)

So you fixed the problem and it's not really a dpkg bug. I doubt this copy of the libc was put there by an official package. I'm thus closing this bug. ** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/874030 Title: package libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package libc6 is already installed and configured To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/874030/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
