Upgrade failing in 10.04
« on: February 06, 2012, 12:18:51 am »
I tried updating my 10.04 install, but it's failing with this error (snippet):

Code: [Select]
Bareword found where operator expected at /usr/pluto/bin/update2utf8.pl line 6, near "// We"
(Missing operator before We?)

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I ran 'apt-get upgrade' a couple of times - same result.  Any ideas on how I could fix this?

SOLVED

Fixed the problem by putting a hash in front of line 6 in /usr/pluto/bin/update2utf8.pl.

I did an update and upgrade, and no problems.
