Just had the same problem: Setting up hylafax-client (2:6.0.4-2) ... cp: `/etc/hylafax/pagesizes' and `/var/spool/hylafax/etc/pagesizes' are the same file dpkg: error processing hylafax-client (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of hylafax-server: hylafax-server depends on hylafax-client (= 2:6.0.4-2); however: Package hylafax-client is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing hylafax-server (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: hylafax-client hylafax-server E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
# umount /var/spool/hylafax/etc/ # apt-get -f install (failed with cp: `/etc/hylafax/pagesizes' and `/var/spool/hylafax/etc/pagesizes' are the same file) # /etc/init.d/hylafax stop # umount /var/spool/hylafax/etc/ # apt-get -f install solved the problem. It looks like either /var/spool/hylafax/etc was mounted twice or it was necessary to stop the hylafax server. After that I tried to reproduce it. Note that the hylafax server was running again. # dpkg -i hylafax-client_2%3a6.0.4-2_amd64.deb (failed with cp: `/etc/hylafax/pagesizes' and `/var/spool/hylafax/etc/pagesizes' are the same file) # umount /var/spool/hylafax/etc/ # dpkg -i hylafax-client_2%3a6.0.4-2_amd64.deb (succeeded) Regards Benjamin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
