[Bug 587186] Re: libc6 upgrade fails: illegal instruction

 

Apparently this:

~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo 
processor       : 0
vendor_id       : CentaurHauls
cpu family      : 6
model           : 7

hlt_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : no
coma_bug        : no
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 1

bogomips        : 799.92
clflush size    : 32
cache_alignment : 32
address sizes   : 32 bits physical, 32 bits virtual
power management:

also somehow fits the description "i586 and lower processors, as well as
i686 processors without cmov support"?  Because I just tried to do-
release-upgrade -d  and got the

 subprocess new post-removal script killed by signal (Illegal instruction)
Exception during pm.DoInstall():  E:Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

failure.  (The machine is a 2003-era "Martian Netdrive" which originally
shipped as a Debian box, and makes a fine wireless printer+scanner
server under Ubuntu, or did until just now...
