Processing triggers for libc6 ... ldconfig deferred processing now taking place /usr/bin/locale is now shipped by libc6, so it isn't available between belocs-locales-bin being removed and the new libc6 being unpacked. debconf is relying on this being treated like an essential component of an Essential package, and always being available. In this case the problem was non-fatal and debconf recovered, but I'm concerned that this might cause some more serious problems in bigger upgrades. The Conflicts forces belocs-locales-bin to be removed - perhaps this is too heavyweight? ** Affects: langpack-locales (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- /usr/bin/locale missing during upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330048 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
