Hi! I have found this again today on my desktop at work which is running testing, as the problem was with testing it didn't happen on any of the previous machines showing this as they run stable.
root 1005 0.0 0.0 12472 908 ? Ss 07:58 0:00 /usr/sbin/anacron -s root 1251 0.0 0.0 4044 572 ? SN 08:03 0:00 \_ /run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily root 1257 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? ZN 08:03 0:00 \_ /[apt] <defunct> The problem today has exactly the same behaviour as the last time on stable, exept that today the problem of the sons blocking the apt were not only apache but also udevd, in fact I killed apache like I had done before and apt is still waiting for udevd. Today's upgrade on my machine looked like this: 2011-12-13 08:04:18,623 INFO Initial blacklisted packages: 2011-12-13 08:04:18,647 INFO Starting unattended upgrades script 2011-12-13 08:04:18,647 INFO Allowed origins are: ['origin=Debian,label=Debian-Security,archive=stable', 'o=Debian,a=stable', 'o=Debian,a=testing'] 2011-12-13 08:05:04,058 WARNING package 'openjdk-6-jdk' upgradable but fails to be marked for upgrade (E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.) 2011-12-13 08:05:05,572 WARNING package 'openjdk-6-jre' upgradable but fails to be marked for upgrade (E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.) 2011-12-13 08:05:06,947 WARNING package 'openjdk-6-jre-headless' upgradable but fails to be marked for upgrade (E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.) 2011-12-13 08:05:44,034 INFO Packages that are upgraded: apache2 apache2-mpm-worker apache2-utils apache2.2-bin apache2.2-common asterisk asterisk-config asterisk-modules base-passwd bash busybox cups cups-bsd cups-client cups-common cups-ppdc dconf-gsettings-backend dctrl-tools debianutils dmsetup e2fslibs e2fsprogs eject evolution-exchange fakeroot gimp gimp-data iceweasel iso-codes kbuild libapr1 libcomerr2 libcorosync4 libcups2 libcupscgi1 libcupsdriver1 libcupsimage2 libcupsmime1 libcupsppdc1 libdevmapper1.02.1 libdvbpsi7 libdvdnav4 libdvdread4 libfftw3-3 libflite1 libgail-3-0 libgimp2.0 libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx libglapi-mesa libglibmm-2.4-1c2a libglu1-mesa libgtk-3-0 libgtk-3-bin libgtk-3-common libgudev-1.0-0 libidn11 libjasper1 libmozjs8d libnet-http-perl libnetaddr-ip-perl libpci3 libperl5.14 libpython2.7 libraptor2-0 libservlet2.5-java libslang2 libss2 libtasn1-3 libtext-iconv-perl libudev0 libvte-common libvte9 libwireshark-data libwireshark1 libwiretap1 libwpd-0.9-9 libwps-0.2-2 libwsutil1 libxenstore3.0 libxerces2-java libxml-commons-resolver1.1-java lvm2 openjdk-6-jre-lib pciutils perl perl-base perl-doc perl-modules python2.7 python2.7-minimal seabios twinkle udev vim vim-common vim-runtime w3m wireshark wireshark-common xmlto xserver-common xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-video-nouveau xul-ext-firebug xulrunner-8.0 2011-12-13 08:05:44,048 INFO Writing dpkg log to '/var/log/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrades-dpkg_2011-12-13_08:05:44.034974.log' 2011-12-13 08:10:50,063 INFO All upgrades installed So sadly we are still having this problem on current wheezy's packages, at least on setups like mine. I still have the apt and udev around waiting to see if this is going to block the cronjobs tomorrow like it had done on one of my servers or if you want me to test something. How can I help to see what's wrong with this?
