Redmine upgrade on Ubuntu 13.10 fails due to wrong package dependencies

[Michael Rüegg]

When I upgraded Redmine from version 1.4.4 to 2.3.1-1 on Ubuntu 13.10 during a system upgrade (aptitude upgrade), I get the following error message:

Setting up redmine (2.3.1-1) ...
Inconsistent link in vendor/rails, please remove manually
rake aborted!
ERROR: 'rake/rdoctask' is obsolete and no longer supported. Use 'rdoc/task' (available in RDoc 2.4.2+) instead.

(See full trace by running task with --trace)
dpkg: error processing redmine (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install. Trying to recover:

This probably happens due to wrong package dependencies. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Run this again with "--trace" appended to the command in order to capture a full trace. Once that has been uploaded, set the status of this bug back to new, and someone will take a look at it.

Well, this is not possible. The problems happens during a package upgrade where I cannot pass any parameters to the underlying program (i.e., rake) that is executed during the package activation.

Any solutions?

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
