Public bug reported: Binary package hint: adept
after installing Kubuntu Herd 4 X86_64 on emachines M6810, I ran adept-updater by clicking on the quickstart notification icon next to the clock. It presented me with 200+ updates. Downloading them seemed to go quickly, but as they were being installed, I got a pop-up window with the message 'dpkg: Invalid nice value. Enter a value between -19 and +20' But there is no input box, only 'continue' and 'abort' buttons. 'Continue does nothing. 'abort' seems to abort the installation of all packages. I then launched adept from the menu, and selected the package build- essential. When I clicked on 'apply changes', it again downloaded them normally, and gave me the same 'invalid nice value' popup as it began to install them. ** Affects: adept (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- dpkg: invalid nice value https://launchpad.net/bugs/88697 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
