[Solved] Problem with this morning's dist-upgrade
« on: 2012/10/29, 15:52:23 »
This caused my dist-upgrade to fail, this morning. I was in run level 3.

Dies führte zu meinem dist-upgrade zu scheitern, an diesem Morgen. Ich war in Runlevel 3.

Code: [Select]
Unpacking siduction-icons (from .../siduction-icons_0.3_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/siduction-icons_0.3_all.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/chipsyBug.svg', which is also in package siduction-art-icons 2012.1.26
 dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)

Yes, confirmed.  I didn't try to fix it -- thinking that it may be only part of a set of new packages.

Unfortunately, I am still stuck:

Code: [Select]
root@tim-pc:~# apt-get dist-upgrade

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 siduction-settings-lxde : Depends: siduction-icons but it is not installed
 E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

Should I remove the siduction-art-icons package, or would that just cause other problems?

[Solved] Problem with this morning's dist-upgrade

My problems have been straightened out with agaida's help on IRC. In a nutshell, we forced siduction-art-icons to be removed, then used dpkg to install siduction-icons 0.4 (newer than the current repository version). Then dist-upgrade ran to completion.

I expect the newer package will get to the repo mirrors, soon.

Big +1 to agaida!

Good Job, Tim.
I was reading with interest in the event that I could use the solution.
 Upon checking though I see that my Xfce4 desktop only uses by default
siduction-art-xfce
siduction-art-desperado
...

For anyone else with this issue, here's the fix (LXDE example):

(go to init 3)

Code: [Select]
apt-get update
apt-get remove siduction-settings-lxde
apt-get remove siduction-art-icons
apt-get install siduction-settings-lxde
apt-get install siduction-art-icons
apt-get dist-upgrade


and all is working again as expected.  :)
