Package: sivp Version: 0.4.3-3 Severity: important sivp fails to configure on my system:
$ sudo dpkg --configure sivp Setting up sivp (0.4.3-3) ... dpkg: error processing sivp (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: sivp The postinst is failing because the grep fo scilab.star is returning non-zero (and set -e is used). $ sudo sh -x /var/lib/dpkg/info/sivp.postinst configure + set -e + dpkg -L scilab + grep scilab.star + SCIDIR= $ echo $? 1 When I run dpkg -L scilab, I don't see a file named scilab.star. Is this postinst code only applicable when upgrading from an older version?
