I have the same problem, here is the relevant aptitude output in english: Setting up update-notifier (0.60) ... /usr/share/gconf/schemas/update-notifier.schemas:12: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: default line 7 and schema </schema> ^ /usr/share/gconf/schemas/update-notifier.schemas:14: parser error : expected '>' </schemalist> ^ /usr/share/gconf/schemas/update-notifier.schemas:15: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: schemalist line 2 and gconfschemafile </gconfschemafile> ^ /usr/share/gconf/schemas/update-notifier.schemas:16: parser error : Premature end of data in tag gconfschemafile line 1
^ dpkg: error processing update-notifier (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 I took a look at /usr/share/gconf/schemas/update-notifier.schemas and line 7 looked like <default>false/default> It should look like <default>false</default> Making this small change fixes the problem.
