Package: nscd Version: 2.3.6-7 Followup-For: Bug #338507
apt-get upgrade failed for nscd because: ... Starting Name Service Cache Daemon: nscd. invoke-rc.d: initscript nscd, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing nscd (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: nscd ... "start" action failed becuase "stop" didn't actually stop the processes. Thanks to Thibaut Varene for immediately pointing that out. He's experienced this on all his architectures (x86/alpha/parisc/x86-64) Workaround is "killall nscd" and then rerun the upgrade. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (90, 'unstable') Architecture: hppa (parisc64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-pa7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages nscd depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries nscd recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
