Package: emacsen-common Version: 2.0.5 Severity: normal Hi. I don't have great detail on this bug report, unfortunately, but it'll at least let you know of a potential problem.
As you know, the emacsen-common policy changed recently to make add-on postinst scripts look for /var/lib/emacsen-common/state/package/installed/emacsen-common I was seeing add-on packages not get installed correctly. Digging, it appeared to be because that file didn't exist on my machine, and the add-on postinst were looking for it. I DID have emacsen-common 2.0.5 installed so it should have been there, but it wasn't. Looking back at dpkg logs, it all looks fine: dima@shorty:/var/log$ zgrep emacsen-common dpkg* dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:41:11 upgrade emacsen-common:all 2.0.3 2.0.5 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:41:11 status half-configured emacsen-common:all 2.0.3 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:41:11 status unpacked emacsen-common:all 2.0.3 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:41:11 status half-installed emacsen-common:all 2.0.3 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:41:12 status half-installed emacsen-common:all 2.0.3 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:41:12 status unpacked emacsen-common:all 2.0.5 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:41:12 status unpacked emacsen-common:all 2.0.5 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:50:49 configure emacsen-common:all 2.0.5 <none> dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:50:49 status unpacked emacsen-common:all 2.0.5 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:50:49 status unpacked emacsen-common:all 2.0.5 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:50:49 status unpacked emacsen-common:all 2.0.5 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:50:49 status half-configured emacsen-common:all 2.0.5 dpkg.log.9.gz:2013-03-13 23:50:51 status installed emacsen-common:all 2.0.5 I just did a 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure emacsen-common', and the scripts ran, and that file got created. So now it's fine. Again, I know nothing of the root case other than the log entries from above. If others have seen this too, maybe they can post more useful information. dima -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 armel Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
