Description Michal Jaegermann 2012-11-09 23:14:45 UTC
Description of problem:

Got the following when running an update:

  Cleanup    : 1:texlive-arphic-0.svn15878-5.fc19.noarch              1092/1988 
warning: %postun(texlive-arphic-1:0.svn15878-5.fc19.noarch) scriptlet failed, signal 9

Signal 9 is SIGKILL.  I not aware of any reason why this suddenly could show up.
Moreover this is in a cleanup phase so this scriptlet starts with:

if [ $1 == 0 ] ; then ... ; fi

and AFAICS nothing should really run as this was in an update transaction.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Error message says texlive-arphic-1:0.svn15878-5.fc19.noarch and currently
texlive-arphic-0.svn15878-6.fc19.noarch is installed but scripts did not
change.

Additional info:
Despite a mysterious nature of this incident, which may be due to a hiccup in some unclear component, there are assorted problems with package scripts here and elsewhere.  I will try to detail all of this in comments to bug 865650.
