I'm not sure if this is interesting, but in my case this assertion failed after I forcefully stopped an ongoing update.
(I started update-manager and told it to update, there were a few more than a hundred packages to update. However on this machine updates slow down everything, and I had something urgent to do, so I killall'd synaptic. After I retried with "dpkg --configure -a" it worked for a while then it threw this assertion. I have not restarted the machine nor closed the terminal, so if there's anything that might be helpful in some logs, ask. It's constantly reproducible, I could even allow a developer ssh access if it helps with debugging.) -- dpkg: ../../src/packages.c:221: process_queue: Assertion `dependtry <= 4' failed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262451 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
