Bug#661531: linux-image-3.2.0-1-amd64: System updates complain about missing files and/or directories.
Subject: linux-image-3.2.0-1-amd64: System updates complain about missing files and/or directories.
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 3.2.6-1
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
I recently upgraded from squeeze to testing. Since then upgrades and installations
of kernel and related packages complain about missing files and/or directories:
Setting up linux-image-3.2.0-1-amd64 (3.2.6-1) ...
Running depmod.
Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d.
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms 3.2.0-1-amd64 /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-1-amd64
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dracut 3.2.0-1-amd64 /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-1-amd64
E: Directories consolefonts, consoletrans, keymaps, unimaps not found. Please inform us about the issue including your OS name and version.
Ignoring these messages works for me and I think, people using testing should
live with minor problems like that; but somewhere on the path to the next release,
things like that should be fixed.
Bye, Daniel
