[Bug 1270410] Re: package tex-common 4.04 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

 

PLEASE NOTE: I am brand new to the linux Ubuntu os . I have a Gigabyte
Z77X-ud5h,  Intel 3770k i7, 32gb Corsair DDR3. I was previously runing
windows 7 pro 64 bit, booting on a Samsung  500gb SSD. Running games
with two Raptor 10000 rpm HDD  raid 0 set-up with the built in marvell
raid controller worked GREAT!!!!.   I also do music production with
sonar and fl studio, computer ran above expectations, but the old SSD
crashed  along with the os and all drivers... my bad, learn from your
mistakes right? I decided to install Ubuntu 14.4 after rebuilding my
system, the Ubuntu 14.4  install failed several times until i tried an
older version, 12.4, the install took all night. After making myself
more familiar with the new OS, I upgraded to 14.4 THIS TOOK FOREVER, I
have tested for hardware issues but everything is great, Ive got the
same errors displayed in this forum, need some help leaving windows in
the dust and learning how to take advantage of Ubuntu! I know windows in
and out, but some habits are hard to break and would love some help for
a new user thanks everyone!
