Sorry! If you're seeming to duck for cover then I must have come across
as rude :-(. I didn't mean to, I was just a little worried that I'd
broken something and I see now that I did use the wrong syntax as you
say.
However, I've since checked for broken dependencies and done a new round
of update, upgrade and then dist-upgrade and one error remains that is
independent of syntax errors on my part - and which still has me
concerned. This is the latest output:
Checking GPG signatures...
Committing changes...
Preparing... ###########################################
[100%]
1:raidtools ###########################################
[100%]
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /sbin/mkraid: cpio:
lsetfilecon failed - Invalid argument
W: Some errors occurred while running transaction
Has anyone seen this in the last hour or two? Will it be fixed by
waiting for the next upgrade package? I suppose I don't need to worry
since I don't use raidtools, but nice to have a clean system :-)
