Error while installing package:

I am now getting this in different flavors on several nodes when I do a software update.

Error while installing package: installed linux-image-6.18.29+rpt-v8 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1

dahdi-source 1:3.4.0-11.asl.deb13

Is there no other log output other than that line? That's odd. However you don't need those packages anymore. You should be able to get back to a corrected state with:

apt remove linux-headers dahdi-dkms
apt autoremove

Then reboot into the latest kernel and do:

apt purge $(dpkg -l | grep -E '^rc' | awk '{print $2}')

Thanks.

I've now tried this on two nodes and it removes the issue seen in Software Updates.
