> Is pam missing a versioned pre-depends? No. a) this is happening at package setup time (so: in the postinst, not in the preinst, and pre-depends are not relevant), b) libpam-runtime has had the correct dep on debconf for years (decades?). > or is something not prepared to handle a non-interactive update? Also no. This seems to be some strange breakage of the debconf package on the system; possibly filesystem corruption, because the packaging system should not allow such a situation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964561 Title: package libpam-runtime 1.3.1-5ubuntu4.3 failed to install/upgrade: installed libpam-runtime package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 255 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pam/+bug/1964561/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
