I just ran into this bug. And I couldn't uninstall/purge either. Finally I ran "which mtxrun" and it came up /usr/bin/mtxrun. Then I edited it to add "os.exit(ok)" (sudo nano /usr/bin/mtxrun) at the beginning of the script so the uninstall wouldn't hang and ran:
sudo apt-get purge texlive-*. Bye, bye. I won't be installing that package again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2058409 Title: Install of texlive-full hangs: tex/context/base/mkiv/l-sandbox.lua:180: module 'socket.core' not found To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/context/+bug/2058409/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
