I can't reproduce it. I'm pretty sure the failing command in the postinstall script is:
install-info --quiet /usr/share/info/com_err.info ... but that doesn't fail for me. Furthermore, the reported error message in dpkgTerminalLog.txt: install-info: No dir file specified; try --help for more information. doesn't appear in the perl script which is /usr/sbin/install-info. So I don't know what to tell you.... in any case, this works just fine on my Ubuntu system, and everyone else's Debian systems, so it looks like some kind of local issue.... -- package comerr-dev 2.1-1.41.3-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330049 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
