The attached VarLogDistupgradeTermlog.gz has symptoms of a broken or misconfigured disk, could you run fsck to make sure a failing disk is not the root cause of your problems?
Other than that, the symptoms look vaguely similar to bug #949369 -- there appears to be a problem with xemacs21, but it might be unrelated. I am setting the Status of this bug report to Incomplete to mark it as pending on further input from you. Once you have supplied the requested information, it can be set back to New (or perhaps even to Confirmed). Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. ** Changed in: emacsen-common (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/951791 Title: package emacsen-common 1.4.22ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 255 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacsen-common/+bug/951791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
