I have a dual boot Toshiba Qosmio "laptop?" that I am upgrading from Lenny
to Squeeze. Everything worked fine (Using Aptitude) until the installation
of netatalk started; a program that I really don't need. I get:
hostname: Unknown host
First /etc/hostname is filled in. When I attempt to reinstall I get the same
type of error and the process aborts. When I try to remove or purge the
application I get the same result. An of course, Aptitude won't finish the
upgrade installation because of this error. I get essentially the same
result with dpkg. How can I get out of this mess. Help!
Take a look at the netatalk maintainer scripts in "/var/lib/dpkg/info"
to see why they are failing.
