Bug Description

Binary package hint: pulseaudio

Preparing to replace pulseaudio 0.9.13-2ubuntu6 (using .../pulseaudio_0.9.14-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb) ...
 * Stopping system PulseAudio Daemon invoke-rc.d: initscript pulseaudio, action "stop" failed.
dpkg: warning - old pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
dpkg - trying script from the new package instead ...
 * Stopping system PulseAudio Daemon No process in pidfile `/var/run/pulse/pid' found running; none killed.
 * PulseAudio Daemon is not running
                                                                         [fail]
invoke-rc.d: initscript pulseaudio, action "stop" failed.
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/pulseaudio_0.9.14-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
 * Starting system PulseAudio Daemon [ OK ]
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/pulseaudio_0.9.14-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I do notice though that:
root@Charlie:~# /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
 * Stopping system PulseAudio Daemon root@Charlie:~# /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
 * Stopping system PulseAudio Daemon No process in pidfile `/var/run/pulse/pid' found running; none killed.
 * PulseAudio Daemon is not running
                                                                         [fail]

I do have it in Daemon mode.

This is the second bug report like this, mind you, yours was in english. How did you produce this, was this a typical upgrade through apt?

I am marking this bug as incomplete until we can find out what is leading to the failed upgrade. Having the stop/start fail really shouldn't have such a drastic effect as this, it typically will just display a lot of error messages and upgrade.

Changed in pulseaudio:
importance: Undecided → Medium
status: New → Incomplete

I use apt yes (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y). What info do you need to mark it confirmed?
