Dist-Upgrade Problem
I tried to upgrade my Sid system after having had it shutdown for
months. Apt-Get downloaded over a thousand packages! I had some
trouble which resulted in finally using the -f and --fix-missing options
and now I get the following results:
Setting up base-passwd (3.5.18) ...
Can't locate Pod/Usage.pm in @INC (@INC
contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/sbin/install-docs line 18.
Global symbol "$opt_rootdir" requires explicit package name
at /usr/sbin/install-docs line 136.
Execution of /usr/sbin/install-docs aborted due to compilation errors.
dpkg: error processing base-passwd (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 9
Errors were encountered while processing:
base-passwd
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Where do I go from here? If I open a problem, is it against
base-passwd, dpkg, apt-get, or something else?
