In the old version, voices/en/ is a directory: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/espeak-data/voices/en/ /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/espeak-data/voices/en/en /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/espeak-data/voices/en/en-us
(containing "en", "en-us", etc.), while in the new version it is a plain file: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/espeak-data/voices/en /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/espeak-data/voices/en-us So it looks to me like dpkg sometimes has troubles to replace the old directory with a file? I tried this upgrade in a precise and quantal schroot (one using overlayfs, the other isn't, it's a tarball schroot) as well as just with espeak-data quantal → trusty upgrade on my production system, and on a precise live image. I also tried that upgrade with the old and new dpkg. In no case I could reproduce this bug. As a workaround we might add a preinst script which just rm -r's /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/espeak-data/voices before the upgrade, but that would actually be wrong in the case that the upgrade fails, and it would not explain why that bug happens in the first place. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1220681 Title: package espeak-data 1.46.02-2ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: unable to move aside `./usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/espeak-data/voices/en' to install new version: Invalid cross-device link To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/espeak/+bug/1220681/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
