Title:
'aptitude purge ~c' breaks 14.04.2 LTS upgrade
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in xorg-lts-utopic package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
During 14.04.1 LTS --> 14.04.2 LTS upgrading I found a strange bug.
How to reproduce:
1) sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-utopic xserver-xorg-lts-
utopic libegl1-mesa-drivers-lts-utopic xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-
utopic xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-utopic
2) sudo aptitude purge linux-headers-3.13.0-48 linux-
headers-3.13.0-48-generic linux-image-3.13.0-48-generic linux-image-
extra-3.13.0-48-generic
3) sudo aptitude purge ~c
4) reboot
What happens:
system unable to boot graphics session and boots to VM instead.
Founded workaround:
sudo aptitude reinstall xserver-xorg-lts-utopic
So, It seems aptitude purge ~c for some reason breaks xserver package that
should be reinstalled then to make system fully botable. Also I found it is
reproduced on many computers.
