Title: Possible bug with sysvinit?
Post by: clubex on 2013/01/27, 23:53:49

I'm getting a problem during todays DU. The DU stops with the following message:

Setting up sysvinit (2.88dsf-39)
/var/lib/dpkg/info/sysvinit.postinstall: 41: kill: illegal number: 12986 1
dpkg: error processing sysvinit (--configure)
subprocess install post-instalation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing
sysvinit

Anyone know how to resolved this problem?

I had to do a

Code Select


apt-get -f install

That cleared the DU errors.
