Lubuntu Alternate Workaround ... work around..
Basically...you manually replace tar symlink to busybox with real tar On working *17.10* (18.04's closest relative) system do this BEFORE installing 18.04... [replace /somewhere with ...a network share] ldd /bin/tar linux-vdso.so.1 (ignore this one) cp /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libacl.so.1 /somewhere cp /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libselinux.so.1 /somewhere cp /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 /somewhere cp /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libattr.so.1 /somewhere cp /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3 /somewhere cp /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 /somewhere cp /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 /somewhere cp /bin/tar /somewhere Also copy /somewhere/fix.sh (see end of this message) Okay...so now /somewhere (i used a network share) has all the .so files and the binaries for tar. Now boot the regular 18.04 Lubuntu Alternate iso. When it bombs out Alt-F2 to switch to second console. Mount /somewhere (I used network share) mkdir /somewhere mount -t cifs -ousername=whatever,password=whatever //server/share /somewhere /somewhere/fix.sh ... script will silently setup everything... switch back to main console. Control-Alt-f1. Hit enter about 5 times to ignore errors and then retry the install...works. :) also copy this script to /somewhere/fix.sh ------------------------------------------ #!/bin/sh # copy files cp /somewhere/libacl.so.1 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu cp /somewhere/libselinux.so.1 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu cp /somewhere/libc.so.6 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu cp /somewhere/libattr.so.1 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu cp /somewhere/libpcre.so.3 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu cp /somewhere/libdl.so.2 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu cp /somewhere/libpthread.so.0 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu cp /somewhere/libbfd-2.29.1-system.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ #cp /somewhere/libc.so.6 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ cp /somewhere/libz.so.1 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ cp /somewhere/libdl.so.2 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ # break symlink to ar and replace with real ar #rm -rf /usr/bin/ar #cp /somewhere/ar /usr/bin/arcopy # #cat <<"EOM_AR" > /bin/ar ##!/bin/sh #echo $0 $* >> /test.log #export EXTRACT_UNSAFE_SYMLINKS=1 #/usr/bin/arcopy $* #EOM_AR # #chmod a+x /usr/bin/ar #ar part works isn't needed # break symlink to tar and replace with real tar + overwrite rm -rf /bin/tar cp /somewhere/tar /bin/tarcopy cat <<"EOM_TAR" > /bin/tar #!/bin/sh echo $0 $* >> /test.log if [ "$1" = "-k" ]; then /bin/tarcopy --overwrite $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7 $8 $9 else /bin/tarcopy $* fi EOM_TAR chmod a+x /bin/tar # fix existing /target/dev/* breaking reinstall attempt rm -rf /target/dev* -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1736309 Title: installer failed missing dpkg_1.19.0.4ubuntu1_amd64.deb To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debootstrap/+bug/1736309/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
