Public bug reported: vim /var/lib/dpkg/info/w3c-markup-validator.postinst
Commenting out this blocked allowed me to prevent having a broken package: # if [ ! -s /etc/$server/conf.d/w3c-markup-validator.conf ]; then # ln -s /etc/w3c/httpd.conf \ # /etc/$server/conf.d/w3c-markup-validator.conf # fi The reason this isn't working is because there's no conf.d directory in the /etc/apache2 directory: ls /etc/apache2/ apache2.conf conf-available conf-enabled envvars magic mods-available mods-enabled ports.conf sites-available sites-enabled I assume this should point to /etc/$server/conf-available instead: ln -s /etc/w3c/httpd.conf \ /etc/$server/conf-available/w3c-markup-validator.conf ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: w3c-markup-validator 1.3+dfsg-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-12.19-generic 3.11.3 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-12-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: i386 Date: Tue Dec 10 14:27:19 2013 DuplicateSignature: package:w3c-markup-validator:1.3+dfsg-1:subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-09-13 (88 days ago) InstallationMedia: Lubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release i386 (20130423.1) MarkForUpload: True PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: w3c-markup-validator Title: package w3c-markup-validator 1.3+dfsg-1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to saucy on 2013-10-18 (53 days ago) ** Affects: w3c-markup-validator (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-package i386 need-duplicate-check saucy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1259547 Title: package w3c-markup-validator 1.3+dfsg-1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/w3c-markup-validator/+bug/1259547/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
