eric, as you now know, the problem was the unit 'foot' in /etc/weewx.conf. unfortunately, the error diagnostics from apt/apt-get/dpkg were not at all clear about that. it looks like at some point you modified /etc/weewx.conf and typed in 'feet' instead of 'foot' so when you try to update/install another version of weewx, dpkg barfed. when you update weewx, dpkg tries to respect any existing configuration. but in this case, that configuration was broken, and dpkg died. if you do not care about the previous configuration, or if the previous configuration has errors or is corrupt, you should first purge the old installation before installing the new one: sudo dpkg --purge weewx this will remove all traces of weewx except for previous data. what happened when you tried to install after changing 'feet' to 'foot'? m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
