[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 999378] Re: package wesnoth-1.8-core 1:1.8.5-1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2

[Gerfried Fuchs]

Actually, the divert handling in 1.10 has to get dropped. I missed that
somehow when 1.10 got stable and didn't have 1.8 and 1.10 installed
side-by-side.  My bad. :/

I will prepare a patch for that and run it through the stable release
process.  In the meantime the only way around it that I can suggest is
deinstall either wesnoth-1.8-core or wesnoth-1.10-core and keep the
version you plan to play for the time being.

Sorry for the inconvenience,
Rhonda
