pspp 0.6.1-4 failed to install via apt-get

[Daniel Bela]

Binary package hint: pspp

I tried to install pspp via "apt-get install pspp" (running Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 amd64) and encountered the following dpkg-error:

"install-info: No dir file specified; try --help for more information.
dpkg: Fehler beim Bearbeiten von pspp (--configure):
 Unterprozess post-installation script gab den Fehlerwert 1 zurück"

For this is the German output I tried to manually translate it into English:

"install-info: No dir file specified; try --help for more information.
dpkg: error processing pspp (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned errorlevel 1"

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, this is likely due to the fact that that a different install-info script than the Debian one needed by the package installation process is being used. One possible reason for this is if you installed TexLive 2008. Regardless this is not an issue with the pspp package itself and I am marking the task invalid.
