Can you please send /var/log/dpkg.log (ideally as bzip2) and tell me roughly at which date you did this upgrade? Perhaps you can determine the relevant entries from dpkg.log. About the binary disappearing: As far I can see, there is only one condition under which this can happen: If somehow dpkg/apt gets interrupted by force between running of preinst and unpacking of the files of loop-aes-utils. This, I think, can not happen under normal circumstances, but only if dpkg/apt got interrupted by power loss, system shutdown/crash or kill (e.g. ctrl-c). Do you remember anything unusual happening during this upgrade? > I tried downgrading loop-aes-utils to sarge version but it seems it > didnt helped. > After downgrade: > blackelf:/home/raf256# sha1sum `which mount` > 9cc043710d1287c0e79da9931c7a73c8c28feb07 /bin/mount > > before downgrade (in current testing 2.12r-13) > blackelf:/home/raf256# sha1sum `which mount` > e458b5155d717f00db7ed39373e1edff12042207 /bin/mount This shows that /bin/mount reappeared at some point. Did you purge/ reinstall the package or fix this in some manual way? Or did the binary reappar after downgrade? cheers, Max
