Hi! problem was the script postinst inside den package. There was a line:
update-rc.d cron multiuser 89 11 >/dev/null The syntax for update-rc.d is not correct so that you get the errormessage. Fast solution (dangerous if you do a typo!): mv /usr/sbin/update-rc.d /usr/sbin/update-rc.d-ok echo "update-rc.d cron defaults" >/usr/sbin/update-rc.d chmod 755 /usr/sbin/update-rc.d apt-get install cron mv /usr/sbin/update-rc.d-ok /usr/sbin/update-rc.d Best solution: Packagemaintainer put a new script inside After the fast solution you will be able to upgrade again ;) CU, Kai. -- package cron 3.0pl1-100ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354589 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
