package aiccu 20070115-11 failed to install/upgrade:

[Jeff Silverman]

Binary package hint: aiccu

While attempting to upgrade from 9.10 to 10.4, the installer reported that my copy of aiccu.conf was different from the one the installer had. I asked to look at the differences between the files, and decided that I liked mine better. At that point, the aiccu installer hung. I couldn't close the window, and the installation was hung waiting for aiccu to complete.

The aiccu postinstaller was in a zombie state, so I killed the parent process.
jeffs@heavy:~$ sudo kill -2 25235

I expected the installer to use my aiccu configuration file, as it has my username and password in it, plus all of the configuration for the IPv6 tunnel.
