** Description changed: - Binary package hint: uml-utilities + When the package is unpacked and when the system is restarted before the + setup of the package, then the directory /var/run/uml-utilities is not + there anymore and the installation fails with the error below. This is + because /var/run is mounted as tmpfs + + A simple fix is to create the directory /var/run/uml-utilities during + postinst and not only in the filelist of the package. ldconfig deferred processing now taking place Errors were encountered while processing: uml-utilities E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) A package failed to install.
