[SOLVED] errors in processing live-config-systemd

[dkeg]

Yes, its solved, but wanted to share in case others experience. FWIW I'm on Kielbasa 3.7-7.towo-siduction-amd64

What I don't remember if it came with the 3.7-7 or before. Sorry.

Been getting this the last few days, maybe a week. Didn't worry much about it, but my curiosity won and was curious what was going on. Seems I wouldn't need any live-config files if I'm installed and nut running off a live-cd. Anyway here is what I was getting.

Code: Select all

2 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.

A little duckduckgo showed me this

Bug#617790: marked as done (live-config: fails to purge)

So I did a simple-purge. Seems to have done the trick.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get purge live-config live-config-systemd
