package python-twisted-core 10.0.0-2ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Brian E. GEORGE]

This happened whilst upgrading.... the package manager gave a warning sign (at installation of upgrade package). this has not allowed the wireless to function corectly 9not being to savvy on the info needed to be given... I can tell you that it is on a Toshiba lapTop (Equium L300)

Thank you.

I wonder what you have in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/twisted/protocols/telnet.py on line 128. From the exception:

IndentationError: ('unexpected indent', ('/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/twisted/protocols/telnet.py', 128, 17, ' \xa0! # Sent only as a reply to ECHO or NO ECHO,\n'))

It seems as though there is an extra "\xa0!" present which is not present upstream:

http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/browser/tags/releases/twisted-10.0.0/twisted/protocols/telnet.py#L128

If those extra bytes really are there, I wonder how you got them.

[Barry Warsaw (barry)]

I wonder too. I've looked at the source package for 10.04 (Lucid) and that extra byte is not there. I've looked at /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/twisted/protocols/telnet.py installed on my Lucid system, and that extra byte is not there either. Brian, is there any possibility that you edited that file accidentally, or installed twisted outside of the normal package management system?

Can you try this command:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall python-twisted-core

and let us know if that works for you or not?

[Brian E. GEORGE (bredgeo1)]

 Hey all,

Being that it was from up grade... being that it was an external HDD, I decided to re-install a-fresh onto an SSD.... Well, Ubuntu does not seem to have SSD friendliness (it works but has a lot of error messages at startup).

So, another re-installation onto a clasical rotating HHD (in its computer cavity) was done, and all is good!

ONE THING I do have on the fresh installation is this a prob with a USB port (wanting to use a NetMD...) I get this error:

netmd_dump
libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/005/005: Permission denied.
libusb requires write access to USB device nodes.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/netmd_dump", line 131, in <module>
    track_range=track_range, title=options.title)
  File "/usr/bin/netmd_dump", line 10, in main
    device_address=device_address):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/libnetmd.py", line 78, in iterdevices
    yield NetMD(device.open())
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/usb1.py", line 502, in open
    raise libusb1.USBError, result
libusb1.USBError: LIBUSB_ERROR_ACCESS [-3]

The ones working on this "Entry" "python" "Utility" are European, and it seems to work well for quite a few of them. If you guys prefer not to worry about this, I will fully understand and will be asking the "Ones" interested.

But, if you guys would know where and how to get the device recognized (the USB port working), that would be nice!

Regards,
Brain
