This file looks fine so could you check whether there are any log files in the /var/log/dist-upgrade directory and if yes, can you attach them to this bug please? Can you also confirm whether this issue occurred during an upgrade to Karmic or while installing or upgrading individual packages? Finally, if you could translate the error message you have above to English, this would help us identify the source of the problem.

[Demetrius Conde (condemetrius)]

The /var/log/dist-upgrade directory is totally empty.

I guess that "подпроцесс установлен сценарий post-installation возвратил код ошибки 2" = "installation subprocess script ... returned an error code 2"... there must be an error in Russian translation, btw.

The issue occured in Karmic while trying to install clisp stuff. Just a moment ago I tried to remove it, and got an error that cl-asdf autoremove returned error code 2. Common error goes like "dpkg: cannot process param %package_name% (--configure):" and that there were errors while processing packages libffcall1, libreadline5 and libsigsegv0.

I hope it helps...
