I'm converting this bug report to a question, as it doesn't appear to be a bug in Déjà-Dup (upstream or package), but a support request after an installation failure.
Please comment and/or convert the question back to a bug if more help is needed and/or more information can be provided and/or it turns out to be a bug. ** Changed in: deja-dup (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Converted to question: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deja-dup/+question/629854 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to deja-dup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1681679 Title: package deja-dup 34.2-0ubuntu3.1 failed to install/upgrade: package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should reinstall it before attempting configuration Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: system gets hang whenever multiple apps are running simultaneously, i have to remove the battery to make it again work......
