Public bug reported: General description: The pike7.8/pike7.8-core package (or a dependency) fails during setup phase in server edition (12.04 amd64). This error does not happen in desktop edition (I tried Xubuntu). Possibly a missing dependency satisfied by default desktop installs?
Ubuntu version: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server amd64 (tested both with, and without, doing "apt-get upgrade") Full package version: 7.8.352-dfsg-4ubuntu2 Expected: a normal successful install as experienced on desktop edition. What happened: Warning messages that are failures in Pike during setup phase of install. Examination of Pike code involved suggests a missing component or dependency.
