Damaged Packages

**auraithx** · September 5th, 2012

I installed 12.04 a few weeks ago, all seemed to be working fine until this morning when my site when down. I restarted my VPS to try and kick it back into action. There is something wrong with my MySQL installation. I've spent all morning on forums/IRC trying to sort it to no avail.

Here's what happens when I try and run sudo apt-get -f install

Code:

What happens if you run:

Code:

sudo dpkg --config -a

Seems that the installation can't continue because one of the packages in that meta package is not configured. This may configure that one and allow the rest to behave. Post back any errors you get.

Seems its not a valid command.

Code:

I'm not writing -config, I'm copy/pasting from here. I tried -config as well after --config didn't work and accidently pasted it into my post (I ninja-edited it out though so unless you seen my post before then)

Code:

Using --configure works though, this is the error I get.

Yikes! Sorry about that! I guess the coffee has not yet kicked in. The command should have been:

Code:

sudo dpkg --configure -a

Glad you figured it out!

It has left us with a clue, though. Looks like there's an issue with the fontconfig package and the directory 'fontconfig.d' not being empty. I'm not 100% sure about this package. However, it looks like it should be updated by the new package (hence the package wanting to remove it). So, I would venture a guess that you could safely remove that directory that it's stuck on manually, and then try the dpkg reconfigure command again.

Had a quick look for that folder, and it seems that one other has agreed with that strategy as well:
