Fair enough, I was sketchy -- This is sid -- last update was 10/30 (it's been a while) The failure was "rm: reading directory `/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/.': Function not implmented" dpkg: error while cleaning up: subprocess rm cleanup returned error exit status 1 dpkg: cannot scan updates directory

ugly failure apt-get

2002-12-21 Thread Hank Marquardt
just apt-get update/upgraded ... unpacks/sets up these packages ... bsdutils, coreutils, debianutils, e2fsprogs, gzip ... then it fails And it turns out now no usual commands (ls, find) work ... something basic is fubar'ed in one of those early packages ... anyone else seeing this? -- Hank Marq
