[ubuntu-us-mi] Lucid upgrade error

[Robert Citek]

Just did an upgrade on Lucid and got this:

$ sudo apt-get -y upgrade
The following packages will be upgraded:
ttf-indic-fonts-core
1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B/1,178kB of archives.
After this operation, 1,044kB of additional disk space will be used.

Anyone else seen this?

I'm seeing the same error. Tried blowing out the apt cache just to make sure I didn't have a corrupt package but still the same error.

I'm sure it's probably a bad build and will be remedied shortly.

Yup. I filed a bug report, which confirmed many similar reports.

Did the same with a kernel bug. Latest upgrade seem to have some issues.

Apparently, so. Ran an upgrade twice, with this being the result of
the second run:

$ sudo apt-get -y upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Very nice.
