Re: apt-get upgrade potato dependancy errors



Thanks, that seems to have fixed things.  I hope that
the package that contained the broken shell script
will be updated soon, but I suspect that once you have
the broken script on your system you might not be able
to just replace the package, because the existing
script wouldn't let you!

Also does anyone know about the error I always see at
the end of an apt-get upgrade run which goes:

mount: /usr is busy
E:Problem executing scripts DPkg::Post-Invoke 'mount
-o remount,ro /usr'
E: Sub-process returned an error code

I suspect this can be ingnored, but I am not sure.
