Kubuntu 9.04 - bluez package error

[digitalangel]

Binary package hint: bluez

Tried to install btnx but kept getting bluetooth package errors. Not sure if this is a package error or if my upgrade didn't go correctly...

Error message:

dpkg: error processing bluez (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Hello,

Is the problem solved.
Could we have log of the apt-get when the problem occured?

Sorry but I would like the log of installation when the problem
occured, not the output of an atp-get update.
The log can be found in /var/log/apt/ and it should exhibit the error
you had and the full installation transaction.

Thanks

Sorry, still getting to grips with commands. The log in the /var/log/apt folder appears to be empty. The dpkg.log seem to ahve bluez package information, if that's any use?

Hope this helps.

Please try
$ sudo apt-get install -f && sudo dpkg-reconfigure bluez

So this behavior has changed that the init script no longer launches the daemon starting with Ubuntu 9.10, bluez version 4.45. Instead, udev is responsible for that.

[digitalangel (uv-goth)]

In the end, I did a clean install and no problems now.
