FWIW mine appears to have hung during a hidden (invisible to me) step where it was attempting to set a MOK. I had to first kill the existing dpkg, then edit /usr/sbin/update-secureboot-policy to change #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash (I was getting a local variable error), then manually run /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/share/debconf/frontend /usr/sbin/update- secureboot-policy --enroll-key, then reboot, install the key, finish booting, and dpkg --configure -a.
I have no idea if the terminal-gui app that is attempting to ask for a password for the MOK can be surfaced into the apt/dpkg configurating process, but that seems to be the missing link for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to dkms in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776076 Title: package virtualbox-dkms 5.2.10-dfsg-6 failed to install/upgrade: installed virtualbox-dkms package post-installation script subprocess was killed by signal (Killed) Status in dkms package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: virtualbox installation getting stuck ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: virtualbox-dkms 5.2.10-dfsg-6 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-20.21-generic 4.15.17 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-20-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.2 Architecture: amd64 Date: Sun Jun 10 19:11:06 2018 ErrorMessage: installed virtualbox-dkms package post-installation script subprocess was killed by signal (Killed) InstallationDate: Installed on 2018-06-10 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Release amd64 (20180426) PackageArchitecture: all Python3Details: /usr/bin/python3.6, Python 3.6.5, python3-minimal, 3.6.5-3 PythonDetails: /usr/bin/python2.7, Python 2.7.15rc1, python-minimal, 2.7.15~rc1-1 RelatedPackageVersions: dpkg 1.19.0.5ubuntu2 apt 1.6.1 SourcePackage: virtualbox Title: package virtualbox-dkms 5.2.10-dfsg-6 failed to install/upgrade: installed virtualbox-dkms package post-installation script subprocess was killed by signal (Killed) UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dkms/+bug/1776076/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
