I can't see how to report a bug on the nova-core trunk ppa on launchpad
(there are bugs listed at , but no "report bug" link), so I am sending
this email instead. I think there is a problem with the prerm script for
the glance-common package. When I update it, I get:

Preparing to replace glance-common
2012.1~e4~20120125.1226-0ubuntu0ppa1~oneiric1 (using
.../glance-common_2012.1~e4~20120130.1231-0ubuntu0ppa1~oneiric1_all.deb) ...

(--unpack):
 subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 2
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

The file appears to be a blank line?

mikal at novappa:~$ cat /var/lib/dpkg/info/glance-common.prerm

Thanks,
