If you edit /var/lib/dpkg/gdm3.postinst and add a line "set -x" just below the "set -e", then retry the installation, it might become clearer what went wrong? > insserv: warning: script 'K25vpnagentd_init' missing LSB tags and overrides > insserv: warning: script 'vpnagentd_init' missing LSB tags and overrides > insserv: Starting vpnagentd_init depends on laptop-mode and therefore on > system facility `$all' which can not be true! Where does this /etc/init.d/vpnagentd_init script come from? I think this is what's causing the problem. It looks as though that script needs LSB tags (<http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts>) in order for the installation of any package with an init script to succeed. As a result, laptop-mode-tools, gdm3 and exim4-base (which each contain an init script) all fail to install: > insserv: Starting vpnagentd_init depends on laptop-mode and therefore on > system facility `$all' which can not be true! ... > insserv: There is a loop at service laptop-mode if started > insserv: There is a loop at service vpnagentd_init if started ... > insserv: There is a loop between service laptop-mode and mountkernfs if > started > insserv: loop involving service mountkernfs at depth 1 > insserv: Starting vpnagentd_init depends on laptop-mode and therefore on > system facility `$all' which can not be true! ... > insserv: exiting now without changing boot order! > update-rc.d: error: insserv rejected the script header > dpkg: error processing exim4-base (--configure): > subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Regards, S -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
