Can confirm this bug on hardy. Also happens with other packages.
for example: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -p low gnome-applets
so it must be related to dpkg-packages somehow, I guess

Sridhar,
The bug you've followed up to is a bug in the grub package that has been
resolved. If you're having debconf locking errors installing other
packages in the LiveCD, that is an entirely separate error which should
be filed in a new bug report.

Bugs,
this is my situation:
I installed fresh install of Edubuntu 6.06.1
Make all dist-upgrade, rebooted
run update-manger -d
( 900 MB after ... and 14 hours too :(
the system seems rebooted ( xterm used to run update-manager was closed) . I
know, there is not automatic reboot.
Or my system have
berg,
The bug that you've followed up to *is* fixed. Whatever the problem is
that you're seeing, it's not this bug. Indeed, your log shows no
mention of grub or any kernel-related packages.
Please file a new bug report against glibc for the problem you're
seeing.

@Steve Langasek , yor are correct, but I think that should be a dpkg or
debconf bug or both, because should finish the lock or maybe remove it ( I used
--force-all ). tomorow i will search better.
thanks for your attention.

Confirmed, if called from a maintainer script that uses debconf, the
current update-grub in hardy will error out. This wasn't tested for
because the official Ubuntu kernel packages don't use debconf.
I'll work on rolling this into the next upload.

i can confirm the bug.
the solution two posts above doesn't work for me either.

Running depmod.

Using mkinitramfs-kpkg to build the ramdisk.
me too, I can confirm the bug... it's quite annoying not being able to
install any new kernel image... I would port this bug to Hardy too.

I've some news...
I resolved the issue downgrading grub to the gutsy version, 0.97-29ubuntu4.
So maybe this is a grub bug, not an initramfs-tool one.
Bye folks.

I can confirm the work around posted by supernaicol, after downgrading grub my
two waiting kernel updates finaly installed succesfully.
The bug seems to be with the update-grub script, or the calling of it from
dpkg. I don't know enough of the package managment to realy asses this.
--
dpkg
I agree with supernaicol, I modified the file /etc/kernel-img.conf by
commenting the stanza
# postin_hook = update-grub
then modified by hand the grub.lst to enable booting into new kernel image.

This is pretty serious. It's currently impossible to test kernel
