Public bug reported: Binary package hint: fontconfig
In the process of upgrading to the development version. Incomplete instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/UsingDevelopmentReleases so in vi step for "Devel release as main work environment" I just changed "hardy" to "intrepid" and let it rip. All downloads completed without error but there were errors part of the way through install (attached intrepid_upgrade_failure.txt). I tried to rerun install-docs but got the same error again: Setting up base-passwd (3.5.17) ... Can't locate Pod/Usage.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/sbin/install-docs line 18. Global symbol "$opt_rootdir" requires explicit package name at /usr/sbin/install-docs line 136. Execution of /usr/sbin/install-docs aborted due to compilation errors. dpkg: error processing base-passwd (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 9 I got a crash report prompt and hopefully something useful will be attached when I submit. Info requested below: Description: Ubuntu 8.04 Release: 8.04 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ apt-cache policy fontconfig fontconfig: Installed: 2.6.0-1ubuntu2 Candidate: 2.6.0-1ubuntu2 Version table: *** 2.6.0-1ubuntu2 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status I rebooted and went through several dialogs to do a "Partial Upgrade" which is currently in progress. Process has halted periodically with other errors. System is now waiting for a reboot so I'll submit this now and hopefully be back later :-). Let me know if more info would be helpful. Thanks!
