** Description changed: + TEST CASE: + + A simple test case is defined here: + + 1. In Hardy, install the trousers (0.3.1-4ubuntu0.1) package with your + preferred package manager. The hardy-updates repo must be enabled for + you to be able to do this. You can also test this if you have a previous + update from hardy-proposed (0.3.1-4ubuntu0.2) already installed. + + 2. Make sure that the daemon is not running (it won't if you don't have + a tpm chip and/or a tpm kernel module loaded). + + 3. Try to remove the package with your preferred package-manager (for instance with the command: sudo apt-get remove trousers). + This should fail with the following message: + + Removing trousers ... + Stopping Trusted Computing daemon: invoke-rc.d: initscript trousers, action "stop" failed. + dpkg: error processing trousers (--remove): + subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 + Starting Trusted Computing daemon: device driver not loaded, aborting. + Errors were encountered while processing: + trousers + E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) + + 4. Enable the hardy-proposed repository. For instance, you can do this + by adding the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list: + + deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-proposed universe + + Update your local cache and upgrade. + + 5. Try again to remove the package. This time it should succeed. + + 6. Disable the hardy-proposed repository. + + WARNING: Any user willing to help with testing is more than welcome. + Please be aware that there might be some time before the updated + packages will be available in your mirror. The sru needs to be approved + and the package manually copied by an archive admin, this may take from + 1 to several days to be processed. + + ------- + I tried installing tpm-tools package, but it seems it won't work with my hardware. When I tried to remove this package, this happens: Removing trousers ... Stopping Trusted Computing daemon: invoke-rc.d: initscript trousers, action "stop" failed. dpkg: error processing trousers (--remove): subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 Starting Trusted Computing daemon: device driver not loaded, aborting. Errors were encountered while processing: trousers E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
