Re: [Bug 1425067] Re: package ca-certificates 20141019ubuntu0.10.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: cannot access archive: No such file or directory

 

Hi Marc,

Not to split hairs on this, but I checked the security option because
this patch dealt with certificates which do have security implications
to a limited extent.  I'm always cautious when doing business with
companies whose certs are wrong.  (no use of credit cards, nor transfer
of personal info)

Anyway, thanks for the update.

Title:
  package ca-certificates 20141019ubuntu0.10.04.1 failed to
  install/upgrade: cannot access archive: No such file or directory

Status in ca-certificates package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  From "uname -a":

  Linux madmod-laptop 2.6.32-60-generic #122-Ubuntu SMP Wed May 7
  20:16:42 UTC 2014 i686 GNU/Linux

  I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop on this computer.  The update manager presented a text page with the certificates change log.
  The only option for the page was "Close" which I used.  (On my 14.04 Desktop, the change log appears in the command screen and I usually just type q to bypass it so that the updates can continue.)

  After I clicked on the Close button, the screen didn't close but went
  gray as if it was busy or low on memory.  Meanwhile, on the command
  screen, the update hung with messages such as apt-changelog ... with
  some options.  But this just hung.  I don't think that this utility
  apt-changelog is in my computer as there is no man page for it.
  (probably not in the 10.04 Ubuntu)

  Finally I used the force quit to kill the text page and the command
  screen.  The update manager continued to a normal stop without
  completing the tasks.  I then rebooted the computer and gave the
  command sudo apt-get autoremove to clear whatever junk had piled up.
  It was clean.

  Another attempt at using the update manager failed the same way.  I
  then rebooted, reissued autoremove and got the other updates--
  bypassing the certificate update.  That set of updates installed
  normally and the update manager indicated that I still had
  certificates to go.  At this point I don't remember what happened
  except that the certificates update failed and hung up the same way.
  So I aborted and used autoremove again.

  Otherwise the 10.04 computer is behaving normally.

  Hope that's useful enough info.
