Re: [Bug 1356743] Re: package libcap2 1:2.22-1ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package libcap2 is already installed and configured

 

Hello,

It did work in the sense that Ubuntu was able to launch the upgrade. It
repaired the netcat. But in the end, after the upgrade was complete the
computer was not able to launch anything. It was the new version 14.04,
but I could not start the computer. I do not recall exactly how it
failed.
So I just reinstalled 12.04. The computer still freezes at least once a
day, and I often get a text console saying that I've got a broken pipe.
I don't know if I still should try to upgrade or if the problem comes
from the computer itself (7 years old). I asked for help in French
Ubuntu forums but didn't get an answer yet. 

I've seen the bug status have been  changed to 'confirmed' since it
affected multiple users. I hope what I experienced can help you at
least.

In French we say 'bon courage' to fix this, and I don't know the
equivalent. I suppose a bit of luck will help though. So good luck with
this!
