Error update Webmin / Virtualmin / Webmin Virtual Server

Hello Maybe this info will be useful for some one ... If you're getting errors when trying to update Webmin / Virtualmin to the latest version from Webmin interface ... In my case the problem was caused by sophos antivirus (if some one use it on Linux Servers). After deactivating the on-demand scan with

systemctl stop sav-protect.service

make update then activate sophos again

systemctl start sav-protect.service

I had no problems.

The Errors looks like this: Preparing to unpack .../00-usermin_1.802_all.deb ... Unpacking usermin (1.802) over (1.791) ... dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-utG82W/00-usermin_1.802_all.deb (--unpack): unable to open '/usr/share/usermin/gray-theme/ipsec/images/secrets.gif.dpkg-new': Operation not permitted Usermin install complete.
