Public bug reported: When installing kubuntu-desktop, one of my machines which had a 0 byte /etc/X11/default-display-manager had the kdm postinst fail. The postinst reliably fails in this case, with error messages like so:
> sudo dpkg --configure -a Setting up kdm (4:3.5.9-0ubuntu7.3) ... basename: missing operand Try `basename --help' for more information. dpkg: error processing kdm (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 ** Affects: kdebase-workspace (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- kdm postinst fails when /etc/X11/default-display-manager is 0 byte file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
