Hi, Yeah, I guess I'll have to fix that at some point, probably before the stretch release. Right after installation, the sample config file for dante-server does not specify any network interfaces at all (obviously, since nothing is known at that point), but then the dante server is automatically started, so it fails, and the installation itself fails. The correct fix would be to make dante-server not start automatically on installation; I'll take a look at this in the next couple of days. In the meantime, could you try to take a look at the /etc/danted.conf file, configure it for your use case (at the very least, specify the listening address, and maybe some rules), then try to start the dante-server service? If this works, if the dante-server service may be started properly, you can then run: dpkg-reconfigure -a ...to let dpkg and apt complete the package installation. Sorry about that, I keep forgetting about it :( I'll fix it soon. Thanks for your interest in Dante!
