I had already successfully upgraded mu Ubuntu 14.10 to run the new 4.0 kernel (rebooted nicely): ~$ uname -r 4.0.0-040000-generic
So naturally, I decided to perform an early upgrade to Ubuntu 15.04: sudo do-release-upgrade -d I had a few config files that I copied to prevent losing my settings while letting the defaults be installed with the upgrade: ~$ sudo cp /etc/rkhunter.conf /etc/rkhunter.conf.oldery ~$ sudo cp /etc/default/netatalk /etc/default/netatalk.oldery ~$ sudo cp /etc/netatalk/AppleVolumes.default /etc/netatalk/AppleVolumes.default.oldery When it got stuck (looping with this problem: bug/1438745). (primary window kept trying and failing to configure clamav-daemon with some sort of error on line 626 unable to find or create something because nonexistent...) Anywhoo, I was able to open a second terminal window. I used the new terminal window to do a few commands to try to manually run dpkg clamav-daemon (but this failed with same error). Then the second window crashed along with dock and only window still active was the first one. So I entered x (instead of r to recover) and was supprised to get CLI prompt. So I decided to use apt-get to purge the clamav-daemon package and any associated config files: sudo apt-get -fV purge clamav-daemon And Since the above recommended auto-removing clamdscan, I followed with: sudo apt-get -fV purge clamdscan Once that was done, I tried to install them fresh: sudo apt-get -fV install clamav-daemon clamdscan And it worked with no errors!! But it did suggest that I install a package named daemon, so I did: sudo apt-get -fV install daemon And that worked with no errors!! So I ran update and upgrade: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade they both ran clean... So then I rebooted: sudo shutdown -r And it booted up nicely into 15.04 And it was still running with the new linux kernel: 4.0.0-040000-generic (that I had applied earlier). I still have to restore those config file settings that were overwritten during the upgrade: ~$ uname -r 4.0.0-040000-generic ~$ sudo cp /etc/rkhunter.conf /etc/rkhunter.conf.oldery ~$ sudo cp /etc/default/netatalk /etc/default/netatalk.oldery ~$ sudo cp /etc/netatalk/AppleVolumes.default /etc/netatalk/AppleVolumes.default.oldery -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to clamav in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1438745 Title: package clamav-daemon 0.98.6+dfsg-1ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clamav/+bug/1438745/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
