[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 805717] Re: package libnunit2.4-cil 2.4.7+dfsg-6 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 9

[Julian Taylor]

** Description changed:

- The Ubuntu software center seems to have a bug where if a previously
- installed package had a problem every attempt to install or remove
- additional software fails.  I am unable to find the entry in the gui for
- the original failed install, monodoc viewer it think, if anyone could
- tell me how to fix this I would greatly appreciate it.  This bug seems
- to be in Ubuntu Software Center
+ You appear to have modified parts of the mono installation which can
+ cause upgrade problems of this type:
+ 
+ ** (/usr/lib/mono/2.0/gacutil.exe:2705): WARNING **: The class
+ System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2 could not be loaded, used in
+ mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
+ PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089
+ 
+ Unhandled Exception: System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type
+ 'Mono.Tools.Driver' from assembly 'gacutil, Version=0.0.0.0,
+ Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.
+ 
+ 
+ It is still unclear what causes the installation to get modified, please report if you remember what could have changed the installation (e.g. installing mono from source) and attach the modified /usr/lib/mono/2.0/mscorlib.dll to the bug.
+ 
+ To fix the issue try reinstalling libmono-corlib2.0-cil which will revert your modifications:
+ sudo apt-get install --reinstall libmono-corlib2.0-cil
