每次我尝试安装软件包时，APT 都会尝试配置 PostgreSQL

Question

我最近在尝试 apt-get 安装任何东西时都会遇到一些奇怪的错误。这是尝试安装fluidsynth的示例。

$ sudo apt-get install libfluidsynth1

Setting up postgresql-9.1 (9.1.10-0ubuntu12.04) ...

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

我正在运行 12.04。这是什么原因造成的，我该如何解决？它发生在安装很多东西时，似乎表明我需要初始化 postgresql 或其他东西。我不记得摆弄过 postgres，所以我不确定为什么这突然变得有问题。

删除/清除postgresql-9.1并重新安装它们：

sudo apt-get --purge autoremove postgresql-9.1 postgresql

如果你真的使用postgresql，或者其他包依赖它，你可以重新安装它

sudo apt-get install postgresql the-other-program-that-got-removed

BTW，libfluidsynth1已经安装好了，不用再安装了。
