Package: lilo Version: 1:22.8-8.2 Severity: normal
Quoting myself and Ben Hutchings from #594189: ,---- [ #594189 ] | > I'm for example shipping lilo and grub with the live system (so the | > binaries as well as its documentation is available to the user), but | > nowadays the build process fails due to errors like: | > | > run-parts: /etc/initramfs/post-update.d//lilo exited with return code 1 | > [...] | > run-parts: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-lilo exited with return code 1 | > | > So the IMHO open question is what's a proper way to disable such | > stuff on request? | | Report a bug on lilo; I suppose it should warn but still 'succeed' if | /etc/lilo.conf is missing. elilo should do the same. This is my bug | and I can fix it. :-) No idea about zipl but I doubt you care about | s390 live media. `---- Detailled output from 'dpkg --configure -a' after a failed automated build process: ,---- [ dpkg --configure -a ] | Setting up linux-image-2.6.33-grml64 (grml.02) ... | Running depmod. | Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d. | run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools 2.6.33-grml64 /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.33-grml64 | update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.33-grml64 | cryptsetup: WARNING: could not determine root device from /etc/fstab | cat: /proc/cmdline: No such file or directory | W: mdadm: /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf defines no arrays. | W: mkconf: MD subsystem is not loaded, thus I cannot scan for arrays. | W: mdadm: failed to auto-generate temporary mdadm.conf file. | W: mdadm: no configuration file available. | run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/pm-utils 2.6.33-grml64 /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.33-grml64 | run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-lilo 2.6.33-grml64 /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.33-grml64 | Fatal: Cannot open: /etc/lilo.conf | run-parts: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-lilo exited with return code 1 | Failed to process /etc/kernel/postinst.d at /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.33-grml64.postinst line 341, <STDIN> line 2. | dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.33-grml64 (--configure): | subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 | Errors were encountered while processing: | linux-image-2.6.33-grml64 `---- I can easily reproduce the problem, please let me know if you need any further information/input/testing/... PS: I'm not sure about the severity of the bugreport. I personally consider this a RC bug that shouldn't happen with squeeze, though leaving the final decision to the package maintainer/others. regards, -mika- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
