I went through crash reports in the Ubuntu Error Tracker today about ubuntu-release-upgrader and didn't see any about the new version of dist-upgrader with that looked like the Traceback this bug is supposed to fix so I'm setting it to v-done. ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-bionic ** Tags added: verification-done verification-done-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1787649 Title: ubuntu-release-upgrader crashed with SystemError: E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

** Description changed: + [Impact] + As documented in bug 1766890 some system were having failing to upgrade due to trigger issues with gnome-menus and ubuntu-release-upgrader was modified to upgrade libc6 first because that would fix that. However, in some rare cases this causes an issue for apt's problem resolver and the upgrade can't be calculated. Instead of leaving people on an unsupported we should try and upgrade them the way we used to - by not upgrading libc6 first. + + [Test Case] + We actually haven't found a situation where upgrading libc6 first will create a issue for apt's problem resolver, but testing upgrades to ensure there are no regressions should be sufficient. Additionally, we can watch the bucket in the Ubuntu Error Tracker (referenced below) to ensure that the new version of ubuntu-release-upgrader doesn't appear there. + + [Regression Potential] + A typo in the new code could cause a different Traceback, but it all looks good to me. + The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem regarding ubuntu-release-upgrader. This problem was most recently seen with package version 1:18.04.24, the problem page at https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/2295855a1a01cc3182184b45e474b7af0ea7f46b contains more details, including versions of packages affected, stacktrace or traceback, and individual crash reports.

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-release-upgrader - 1:18.10.10 --- ubuntu-release-upgrader (1:18.10.10) cosmic; urgency=medium [ Harald Sitter ] * DistUpgradeViewKDE.py: - exitMainLoop is now exitMainLoopMidFlight to make it clearer that it is run while the app is still running. it's a hack and not the actual exit point - inhibit kscreenlocker while the UI is up to prevent the lock screen from breaking during upgrades and then complain to the user [ Brian Murray ] * DistUpgradeQuirks.py: add a quirk which checks for an apt architecture of i386 and prevents the upgrade as the architecture may be dropped. * DistUpgradeController.py: If the attempt to only upgrade libc6 ends up creating an issue with apt's problem resolver try the full upgrade.
