I'm getting an error message trying to upgrade a number of packages that looks like
Setting up modutils (2.4.26-1) ... cat: alsa: No such file or directory dpkg: error processing modutils (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of modconf: modconf depends on modutils (>= 2.1.85-14); however: Package modutils is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing modconf (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Setting up module-init-tools (3.0-pre5-1) ... cat: alsa: No such file or directory dpkg: error processing module-init-tools (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Setting up autofs (3.9.99-4.0.0pre10-16) ... Starting automounter: /var/autofs/misc /var/autofs/net. cat: alsa: No such file or directory dpkg: error processing autofs (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: modutils modconf module-init-tools autofs E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) Looks like the error in modconf is just to do with the dependency on modutils but the other two both have this 'cat: alsa: ....' thing. Nothing in any of the post-installation scripts gives an indication of the cause this error ?!
