Strange - that call has been in there for over a year...

Do you need a hotfix, or is everything working, except the upgrade itself?

[Marie.O]

I did some more checking. Would you mind pasting the output of

Code: [Select]

dpkg -l | grep lmce | grep script

please.

so far no hotfix is besser here

[Marie.O]

Is this an older install?

You /should/ have a package called lmce-install-scripts, which replaces pluto-install-scripts. See if

Code: [Select]

apt-get install lmce-core lmce-install-scripts

provides a solution.

If you *must* just have a working install, modify /var/lib/dpkg/info/lmce-core.postinst and put

Code: [Select]

Configure_NTP_Server || :
in line 99.

But I would appreciate, if you first tried the apt-get.

[maverick0815]

I do think its better to go through the paces...this usually brings about a solid solution, so here is the result:

it says above "System restart required" but I'd hold off on that until you tell me its okay to do so.

[Marie.O]

System restart is required has to do with the fact, that you probably installed a new kernel as well.

Question: Did you do apt-get upgrade first, or did you directly run apt-get dist-upgrade

[maverick0815]

I always do a apt-get update before the dist-upgrade.

[Marie.O]

apt-get up*grade* - of course you first do an up*date, but after that, do you do an upgrade or dist-upgrade?

[maverick0815]

:-) I understand that.
I do an apt-get update and then apt-get dist-upgrade, just as it states on the wiki-page

[Marie.O]

Ok. Thanks.

You didn't answer my question if this is an older install. Is it?

[Marie.O]

Nevermind, I think I found the issue.

Please do another apt-get update and apt-get upgrade and see if that fixes the issue. If it doesn't, do

Code: [Select]

apt-get install --reinstall lmce-core lmce-install-scripts
but as always, try the regular apt-get update / upgrade first.

Thanks

[maverick0815]

apt-get upgrade was working...everything is peachy :-)
Thank you very much!

[Marie.O]

You are welcome.
