Public bug reported: Binary package hint: dselect
I have been trying to upgrade my feisty partition for a while now, but when I do it fails on this error E: /var/cache/apt/archives/dselect_1.13.24ubuntu5_i386.deb: unable to stat restored `./usr/share/man/man1/dselect.1.gz' before installing another version Also the filesystem occasionally goes into read-only mode after trying to run apt-get upgrade (or dist-upgrade). Which renders the entire computer essentially useless (only opened apps work, restarting X won't work) the only option is to restart the computer. ** Affects: dpkg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Tags added: feisty ** Description changed: Binary package hint: dselect I have been trying to upgrade my feisty partition for a while now, but when I do it fails on this error E: /var/cache/apt/archives/dselect_1.13.24ubuntu5_i386.deb: unable to stat restored `./usr/share/man/man1/dselect.1.gz' before installing another version - Also the filesystem keeps going into read-only mode after trying to run apt-get upgrade (or dist-upgrade).
