@3v1n0 I tried but can't yet confirm if the original reboot persistence bug is still happening, because it seems every time I test it an additional layer of problems occurs. Parallels Desktop 13 still doesn't officially support Ubuntu 18.04. Ubuntu installs okay, but post-installation the VM

I created a new 17.10 VM in Parallels 13 and didn't update any packages post-installation, so I can still access the scale controls in Settings. I'm attaching copies of ~/.config/monitors.xml before changing any settings, immediately after changing Settings > Devices > Displays > Scale to 200%,

I confirm #6. First, as I have to do every time I boot into my Ubuntu 17.10 VM under Parallels 13, I went to Settings > Devices > Displays and changed my scaling to 200% so I can actually read text. Then I performed some outstanding Ubuntu software updates and rebooted when prompted. When I logged

In comment #30 I took the procedure from comment #24 and added two commands to rename appstream's apt config file, but those commands aren't necessary because they have no effect when appstream is installed via the `dpkg` command. The appstream package's postinst file explicitly calls

@ximion: I missed that. After upgrading libappstream3 from -proposed, everything works fine. Thanks. The reason I warned against removing the binary is because it's a bad practice in general, even though in this particular problem scenario the removed binary gets restored when its package is

@pgbennett I'm not sure how to discover which particular repo is causing appstreamcli to hang, so you could try disabling *all* your third party repos then update. Or disable them one-by-one, but that could be tedious. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop
