Package: gnome-session Version: 2.26.1-6 Severity: normal Hi,
(maybe this should have a higher severity, but I'm not sure whether this is caused by a wrong configuration on my side) after the upgrade from 2.22.3-3 to 2.26.1-6, the postinst fails with the following error: Setting up gnome-session (2.26.1-6) ... Installing new version of config file /etc/gnome/defaults.list ... update-alternatives: error: alternative x-session-manager.1.gz can't be slave of x-session-manager: it is a master alternative. dpkg: error processing gnome-session (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 My x-session-alternative: $ ls -al /etc/alternatives/x-session-* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Jun 2 20:08 /etc/alternatives/x-session-manager -> /usr/bin/icewm-session Running the postinst with -x results in the following: :~ $ sudo /var/lib/dpkg/info/gnome-session.postinst configure + set -e + [ configure = configure ] + update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/x-session-manager x-session-manager /usr/bin/gnome-session 50 --slave /usr/share/man/man1/x-session-manager.1.gz x-session-manager.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/gnome-session.1.gz update-alternatives: error: alternative x-session-manager.1.gz can't be slave of x-session-manager: it is a master alternative.
