Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that there was an error on your system when trying to install a particular package. Please execute the following command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:
sudo apt-get clean Then try performing the update again. This will likely resolve your issue, but the failure could be caused by filesystem or memory corruption. So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a memory test. Thanks in advance! ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868796 Title: package linux-image-2.6.38-11-generic 2.6.38-11.48 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess dpkg-deb --control returned error exit status 2 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: MY LINUXI IS NOT WORK PROPERLY Automatic aPPLICATIONS OPEN oR cLOSE ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 Package: linux-image-2.6.38-11-generic 2.6.38-11.48 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-11.48-generic 2.6.38.8 Uname: Linux 2.6.38-11-generic i686 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.23.
