Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: console-setup
When doing a intrepid -> karmic upgrade (update-manager -d) it failed on
console-setup
The error was mentioned to be in "/var/lib/dpkg/info/console-setup.config"
line 1295
Which appeared to be a: eval `locale`
My locale output contained a
LC_ALL=
(empty) so this caused the problem.
I did a
export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
and added this line to /etc/profile
After that running the update-manager again fixed everything.
Maybe my LC_ALL=
is a very exotic and wrong configuration issue (dunno where it came from), but
since my install crashed so miserably and left a half installed system, it
might be worth catching this problem.
