I have the following issue:
The following partially installed packages will be configured:
insync
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.
Setting up insync (1.3.9.36089-wheezy) ...
dpkg: error processing package insync (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
insync
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Failed to perform requested operation on package. Trying to recover:

@fedele.mantuano : Apologies for the trouble. Are you using python 3? You can confirm by running python -V.
The version is:

@fedele.mantuano : I see. As root please run the following command: tail -n +8 /var/lib/dpkg/info/insync.postinst | head -n -3 | python -. This will just re-run Insync’s post installation script but it should show the errors.
Your command:
tail -n +8 /var/lib/dpkg/info/insync.postinst | head -n -3 | python -
is without output, maybe the syntax of tail is not correct:
-n, --lines=[+]NUM
output the last NUM lines, instead of the last 10; or use -n +NUM to output starting with line NUM
But the command:
tail -n8 /var/lib/dpkg/info/insync.postinst
show incomplete python script:
f.write('\n'.join(lines))
increase_inotify_watches()
open("/usr/lib/insync/from_deb", "w").close()
EOF
exit 0
so the complete command go in error:
tail -n8 /var/lib/dpkg/info/insync.postinst | head -n -3 | python -
File "<stdin>", line 1
f.write('\n'.join(lines))
^

@fedele.mantuano :
As in your post about the tail command, +NUM is used to “output starting with line NUM”, so tail -n +8 /var/lib/dpkg/info/insync.postint outputs the contents of /var/lib/dpkg/info/insync.postinst starting from the 8th line. The error in your command is because you only outputted the last 8 lines.
If there was no output though, then it might mean that it succeeded when you re-ran it. I will try to replicate the issue.
Ok, thanks.
I loaded the output of command here .
tail -n +8 /var/lib/dpkg/info/insync.postinst | head -n -3

@fedele.mantuano : Yes, that is the correct script to run. So tail -n +8 /var/lib/dpkg/info/insync.postinst | head -n -3 | python - has no output?

@fedele.mantuano : Okay, thanks. I will try to reproduce that.

@fedele.mantuano : Please check if this issue is still present in the 1.3.10 build. You can get it at www.insynchq.com/downloads .

@fedele.mantuano : Is it only being raised when there is no currently installed Insync version? If so please try the following:
#!/bin/bash
set -e
tempdir=$(mktemp -d)
buildname="insync_1.3.11.36106-wheezy_amd64.deb"
pushd "$tempdir"
wget -q http://s.insynchq.com/builds/"$buildname"
ar p "$buildname" data.tar.gz | tar xpz
ar p "$buildname" control.tar.gz | tar xpz
tail -n +5 postinst | head -n -7 > postinst.py
sudo ./usr/lib/insync/py postinst.py
popd
rm -r "$tempdir"
This runs the postinst script in the latest build using Insync’s Python interpreter, which is how it is normally run. Please ensure that Insync is not installed first before running the script.
I tryed it, and I have this error:
# ./insync.sh
