Python 2.4-minimal fails to update on Edgy Eft Beta in recent update!

Asked by TFrog

I did an update last night and again today to make sure it wasn't me using Adept and fetch updates. Adept currently states I have 54 updates pending. However, when I update, I get an error when dpkg goes to configure python2.4-minimal package. At first I figured all I had to do was run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a to clear this issue. Even after doing such and answering all questions in the reconfigure with the defaults it still locks Adept up and won't update past the python2.4-minimal package. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

My system is a home built containing the following:

MSI K7N2 Delta2 motherboard
1 gig ram
ATI 7000VE video
1 - 80gig Seagate PATA IDE drive with Windows XP
1 - 120gig Seagate PATA IDE drive with 20gig VFAT partition and 100gig Kubuntu 6.10 partition
Sound Blaster 5.1 Live sound card

Could you please attach a full log of the update process?
Is it similar to the one reported in bug #64859?

I have a feeling this this might be caused by bug 56779.

Dear Mr. Rose,

I attempted most of if not all the possibilities in the suggested bug report
with no results other than the same I keep getting. Attached is a snapshot
taken when attempting to do the update from Adept. I've sent a email on to
another party in your organization with the same attachment. Hopefully
you'll be able to figure this out. Now I loaded Edgy on my Compaq Presario
R4125US today and did all the updates without a hitch. This could be a
dependency issue I'm running into since I removed some packages I don't need
or use. Will be reinstalling Edgy on here this afternoon. I'm typing this
very early morning and should be in bed.

Sincerely,
Terry L. Parris

Thanks!
