git upgrading error

During a -Syu system upgrade today, I noticed this error:

( 2/11) oppgrading git              [###] 100%
error: command failed to run correctly

Not sure if or how this will affect my vanilla system, so insightful comments appreciated.

Re: git upgrading error

it seems the system did not upgrade completely. Maybe there was an error in downloading a package. Atleast one of the 11 packages that you were trying to upgrade failed on something.

Re: git upgrading error

Are you saying it could be any of the 11 packages and not necessarily git itself?

I do have 'git 1.7.2.2-1' installed.

Re: git upgrading error

Yes. Try and see if you still have any more updates to perform. Post them here. You might also want to try a different mirror.

Re: git upgrading error

Well, entering -Syu again, I get "there is nothing to do".

Are you quite sure the error message did not specifically reference upgrading of the git package itself? If so, I am a bit mmm... flabbergasted wink

Re: git upgrading error

It is the installed package directly after git failing in its pre_update script.

Re: git upgrading error

By 'directly after' I assume you mean #(3/11), which was 'haskell-x11-1.5.0.0-5-x86_64'.

However, the initial list of packages to upgrade includes ''git 1.7.2.2-1'...??

I am confused. Is this pre_udate script on my system and can or should I amend it somehow?
