> could you provide your /etc/environments file? I'm not Daniel, but if you just need a reproducer for the issue with sourcing, a minimal repro is to add an unquoted variable with semicolons in your /etc/environments, such as this: root@envtest:~# cat /etc/environment PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin" MY_LIST=1;2;3;4;5
and then attempt to `apt install` any program. You should then see: dpkg: error processing package install-info (--configure): installed install-info package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 127 Please let me know if there is any additional context I can provide here to further assist you in deciding how to address this bug.
