Re: [Bug 592521] Re: "pwgen: not found" during clean install

 

I believe that we should be able to fix this with a predepends, but does
this actually happen with the newest builds? Not 0.23?

Title:
  "pwgen: not found" during clean install

Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mythtv

  Description:    Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
  Release:        10.04

  mythtv-common:
    Installed: 0.23.0+fixes24158-0ubuntu2
    Candidate: 0.23.0+fixes24158-0ubuntu2
    Version table:
   *** 0.23.0+fixes24158-0ubuntu2 0

          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  
  Clean install of Lucid (regular, not Mythbuntu), installing only mythtv-frontend gave me:

  /tmp/mythtv-common.config.142661: 23: pwgen: not found                                        
  mythtv-common failed to preconfigure, with exit status 127

  And this is true, pwgen was not installed.  But it *is* a dependency
  and it *was* pulled into the install and it is *now* installed (after
  the install finished).  So there is a dependency order problem, and
  maybe this bug belongs to aptitude, and not mythtv-common...

  Easy enough to work-around:

  1) Before you install and hit this problem:
  $ sudo aptitude install pwgen
  $ sudo aptitude install mythtv-frontend

  2) After you have tried to install, and have hit this problem:
  $ sudo aptitude install pwgen
  $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common
