[Bug 1874953] Re: package smartmontools 7.1-1build1 failed to install/upgrade: conffile difference visualizer subprocess returned error exit status 127
This really looks like an environment issue: Setting up smartmontools (7.1-1build1) ... Configuration file '/etc/default/smartmontools' ==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation. ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version. What would you like to do about it ? Your options are: Y or I : install the package maintainer's version N or O : keep your currently-installed version D : show the differences between the versions Z : start a shell to examine the situation The default action is to keep your current version. *** smartmontools (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? d sh: 1: pager: not found diff: standard output: Broken pipe dpkg: error processing package smartmontools (--configure): conffile difference visualizer subprocess returned error exit status 127 Due to missing /bin/pager: (c)rafaeldtinoco@devel:~$ which pager (c)rafaeldtinoco@devel:~$ ls -lah /bin/pager lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Apr 24 21:39 /bin/pager -> /etc/alternatives/pager (c)rafaeldtinoco@devel:~$ ls -lah /etc/alternatives/pager lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Apr 24 21:39 /etc/alternatives/pager -> /usr/bin/less Try checking your system for pager: (c)rafaeldtinoco@devel:~$ sudo update-alternatives --query pager Name: pager Link: /usr/bin/pager Slaves: pager.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/pager.1.gz Status: auto Best: /usr/bin/less Value: /usr/bin/less Alternative: /bin/more Priority: 50 Slaves: pager.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/more.1.gz Alternative: /usr/bin/less Priority: 77 Slaves: pager.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/less.1.gz and fixing it! ** Changed in: smartmontools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: smartmontools (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server, which is subscribed to smartmontools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874953 Title: package smartmontools 7.1-1build1 failed to install/upgrade: conffile difference visualizer subprocess returned error exit status 127 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/1874953/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Hum, This might be something else... chances for 2 bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/smartmontools/+bug/1874953 (this) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/smartmontools/+bug/1875010 (similar) not to have pager is lower than just 1. I'm marking the other bug as a duplicate of this. ** Also affects: dpkg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874953 Title: package smartmontools 7.1-1build1 failed to install/upgrade: conffile difference visualizer subprocess returned error exit status 127 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/1874953/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Looks like "D" option is not working, two bugs with problems...
