[Bug 1173372] Re: apt-get hangs: DKMS: install completed.
Hi, I had the same problem in Ubuntu 18.04 Beta2. What I did was to find the bcmwl related tasks("ps aux|grep bcmwl") and I found there was one something like "rmmod []bcmwl" blocked. I killed it(sudo kill -9 [pid] and I could continue. Now I have upgrade the system. I think it happened to me by canceling the installation of restricted drivers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1173372 Title: apt-get hangs: DKMS: install completed.

[Bug 1173372] Re: apt-get hangs: DKMS: install completed.
This is a bug in the package bcmwl-kernel-source (6.30.223.141+bdcom-0ubuntu2) It still affects the latest Ubuntu. It causes an endless loop where the package won't complete installation and apt won't do anything without the package completing. The solution is as follows(credit goes to another poster) The command that appears to be hanging is: modprobe -wl If you open another terminal and do: ps aux | grep modprobe you will see the hung process and can eliminate it using kill -9 processid Anyway, the offending package should have a timeout tied to that modprobe command. ** Package changed: ubuntu = bcmwl (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1173372 Title: apt-get hangs: DKMS: install completed.

[Bug 1173372] Re: apt-get hangs: DKMS: install completed.
I ran into a similar problem the other day when trying to install drivers for my Broadcom wireless card. It seems that the dkpg process tree was hung up on 'modprobe'. I was able to force stop (ctrl-z) and run lxtask (using `sudo lxtask`). From lxtask I was able to follow the process tree and restart the processes beginning with the sudo process. The process was still not getting anywhere so I killed the modprobe process and waited a few minutes. After exiting lxtask I was able to run apt-get update. The package manager (GUI included) seems to be working fine now. Hopefully that helps. If not, feel free to ask questions. I am so far still unsuccessful in my attempts to access wi-fi, but I was able to get the package manager working again. For what it's worth, I'm running Lubuntu 13.4(raring). Hopefully I'll have more luck with Bodhi or LXLE. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1173372 Title: apt-get hangs: DKMS: install completed.

Re: [Bug 1173372] Re: apt-get hangs: DKMS: install completed.
Launchpad will not let me file this bug with a target package. I attempted but failed to set the target The web interface for launchpad suggests ia32-apt-get and then rejects that suggestion when I click Save changes. Here's the quote: there is no package named 'ia32-apt-get' published in Ubuntu. So please fix launchpad so I can properly set this bug target to the package=apt-get Once launchpad is fixed, the bug can be investigated.

I'm the author of this bug. Here are updates The bug reporting system (launchpad) is buggy and It's hard to obey all the rules from the people who make the rules for reporting bugs. a) I did attempt using the tools alt+f2, then ubuntu-bug -w, and that failed, and mis-reports the bug is with terminal. The bug is with apt- get run inside terminal b) I did attempt to follow the documentation on launchpad, and that says to manually report the package target and distrubtion, which I did attempt, and launchpad did not save. c) I did attempt to re-update the proper bug target, and then the error message shows up. The web interface for launchpad suggests ia32-apt- get as a bug target, and then when I try to save my update, launchpad rejects that suggestion Here's the quote: there is no package named 'ia32-apt-get' published in Ubuntu. = As I reported, the bug result is a locked out error on any more attempts at apt-get. Here are more details of that lock, below id@id-laptop:~$ sudo -s [sudo] password for id: root@id-laptop:~# apt-get clean E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the download directory root@id-laptop:~# apt-get autoremove E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? root@id-laptop:~# apt-get update E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/ E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? root@id-laptop:~# apt-get upgrade E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? root@id-laptop:~# == In conclusion a) ) first I would love a workaround to get apt-get working and my wifi working b) then fix launchpad so people can report bugs without a huge burden c) then lets fix this bug so no workrouand is needed.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that your bug report is not filed about a specific source package though, rather it is just filed against Ubuntu in general. It is important that bug reports be filed about source packages so that people interested in the package can find the bugs about it. You can find some hints about determining what package your bug might be about at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. You might also ask for help in the #ubuntu-bugs irc channel on Freenode. To change the source package that this bug is filed about visit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1173372/+editstatus and add the package name in the text box next to the word Package.
