This patch to /usr/bin/dexconf makes sure that each file is closed when it is no longer needed, so that dotfiles aren't left hanging around in /tmp/dexconf-tmp-*/. I've simply added "exec 4>&-" to match every "exec 4>something".
This fixes dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg for me. ** Attachment added: "Close file descriptors after using them" http://librarian.launchpad.net/4820457/dexconf.patch -- X configuration fails with NFS root (simple fix) https://launchpad.net/bugs/65763 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
