Hi Arthur Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Looking at the error message in #2 it would appear that another process had a lock on /var/cache/debconf/config.dat. Most often, this is only a transient situation. Simply performing the update again should solve this issue. If it continues to happen fuser -v will return the locking process if any. Kill it and try performing the upgrade again. If this resolves your issue please mark this bug as 'Invalid' Thanks ** Changed in: postfix (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to postfix in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798975 Title: package postfix 2.8.2-1ubuntu2.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/postfix/+bug/798975/+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
