Control: tags -1 + unreproducible
2015-09-19 23:52 Vincent Lefevre:
Package: aptitude
Version: 0.7.1-1
Severity: important
During an upgrade from the aptitude UI, I got:
Configuration file '/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf'
==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : start a shell to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
*** lightdm.conf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ?
I typed 'D', then in the pager, I typed Ctrl-L to refresh.
But this put aptitude and its descendents in background, and
I got the shell prompt.
I cannot reproduce with these steps and also 0.7.1-1.

I had to kill the processes manually, then do "dpkg --configure -a".
Out of curiosity, what happens if you send SIGCONT instead of killing?
Cheers.
