It seems there is a regression in postgresql-common version 154. I currently experience exactly the same after a dist-upgrade to trusty. The dist-upgrade process already reported the failure. So I did:
- purge all postgresql packages (except postgresql-common) - select postgresql and postgresql-client version 9.3+154 again I still get the error reported above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270597 Title: package postgresql-client-9.3 9.3.2-1ubuntu1 failed to upgrade: alternative pg_basebackup.1.gz can't be slave of psql.1.gz To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/postgresql-common/+bug/1270597/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
