*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 68267 *** I got the error three times: First, when the adept window just said 'preparing...' Second, when adept said 'preparing update for x11-common' and a third time, soon after, when I didn't catch the package name in question.
I also got it when using adept to install a single package 'adept'. However, when I went to the command line to execute 'apt-get install adept', it not only did that, but noticed five packages only partly installed, including x11-common, and it successfully finished the job on those. I guess what needs to be done, is another fresh install, and then an immediate 'apt-get update; apt-get upgrade' rather than using the GUI for the initial update. I'm well beyond that point now, working on some sound issues, so I won't get a chance to do another fresh install until herd 6 comes around. -- dpkg: invalid nice value https://launchpad.net/bugs/88697 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
