Ubuntu/linux fixpack blocks sametime et alia install
After getting 8.5.1 trying to install sametime, symphony etc I ran into:
$ sudo dpkg -i ibm-lotus-sametime-8.5.1.i586.deb
(Reading database ... 499342 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking ibm-lotus-sametime (from ibm-lotus-sametime-8.5.1.i586.deb) ...
Notice: Please uninstall hotfix/fixpack before installing package ibm_lotus_sametime-8.5.1-20090929.1223.Otherwise install failure might be encountered.
dpkg: error processing ibm-lotus-sametime-8.5.1.i586.deb (--install):
subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 80
Errors were encountered while processing:
ibm-lotus-sametime-8.5.1.i586.deb
Unfortunately the neither the install of 8.5 nor the fixpack were removable. Appears the test was for the file:
/etc/ibm/lotus/ibm_lotus_notes/ibm_lotus_notes.hotfix
removing that file allowed sametime to install (though it doesn't yet work ;-)
