mid configuration problems in Debian

[mka]

When apt-get upgrading, I get the following error:

Setting up mid (2.3) ...
Starting SAS Module Interface Daemon: dpkg: error processing mid (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of dialupmod:
dialupmod depends on mid; however:
Package mid is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing dialupmod (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
mid
dialupmod
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

What is mid anyway? Where can I find a resource for configuring it? There is no man page for it on my system.

Thanks!

A few commands you can try:

apt-get -f install
dpkg --configure -a
dpkg --configure --pending

Thanks for the input rod!

I tried those and they didn't work. Same error.

It still complains about mid not being configured. mid being Module Interface Daemon. Don't know what it does or why mine isn't configured right.

Got a feeling that these probs will go away when I figure mid out.

You should goto debian's website and subscribe to one of their many mailing lists. I have found them to be very helpful in answering questions such as these.
