Took me a while to find this (non) bug, so for the benefit of the next person googling:
I got this error message trying to upgrade ubuntu 9.10: " Can not upgrade Your python install is corrupted. Please fix the '/usr/bin/python' symlink. " Turns out /usr/bin/python was symlinked to /etc/alternatives/python. Fixed with: sudo ln -sf python2.6 /usr/bin/python -- pyversions doesn't honor update-alternatives https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224438 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
