Public bug reported: I encountered errors when installing Percona XtraDB Cluster 5.6 in 15.04 from the Universe repo.
Setting up percona-xtradb-cluster-server-5.6 (5.6.21-25.8-0ubuntu1) ... update-alternatives: error: alternative path /etc/mysql/percona-xtradb-cluster.cnf doesn't exist dpkg: error processing package percona-xtradb-cluster-server-5.6 (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.21-0ubuntu4) ... Processing triggers for systemd (219-7ubuntu3) ... Processing triggers for ureadahead (0.100.0-19) ... Errors were encountered while processing: percona-xtradb-cluster-server-5.6 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) More output is captured here: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10876065/ An initial investigation by Robie Basak from the Ubuntu Server Team at Canonical yielded the following: Looks like a packaging bug - "dh_install -i" in the binary-arch target should be "dh-install -a", and "dh_installdebconf -i" in the same target shouldn't be there. I've not tested but that looks to be the likely cause to me - meaning that dh_install doesn't put the configuration into the corresponding (arch-dependendant) binary package. ** Affects: percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1448533 Title: Packaging bug prevents install of PXC 5.6 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6/+bug/1448533/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
