Virtualmin removed webmin on update and didn't re-install it...

Hey all, and thanks in advance for any help at all....

So I did an update in Virtialmin just as I do normally but at the end I get an install failed.... and last message was:

Errors were encountered while processing: webmin webmin-virtual-server E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I look through the install log text and see this:

dpkg: error processing package webmin (--configure): package webmin is not ready for configuration cannot configure (current status 'half-installed')

SO I did an apt install -f and see that:

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of webmin-virtual-server: webmin-virtual-server depends on webmin; however: Package webmin is not installed. Package webmin which provides webmin is not installed.

So now I do an apt install webmin and wait for it to complete....

now I see this:

Setting up webmin-virtual-server (6.08.gpl) ...

So it was installed and I now again perform - apt install -f // then apt autoremove...

Webmin appears to have restarted correctly as its PID has changed, and the web interface is working:

CURRENTLY NOW ON: Webmin version 1.932 Usermin version 1.780 Virtualmin version 6.08

Websites THANK GOD are all still functioning!

After reboot, all is good still...

Can anyone shed any light on why webmin did not install? I had no trouble installing it manually.....

Next time I update I hesitate for sure !
