I run update-manager from a root shell. Then, the partial-upgrade hung for about an hour when it was trying to install the mysql server.
Then, I used Ctrl + c twice on the root shell to kill the update- manager. After that, I run update-manager again from the same root shell. However, this time update-manager notified that file is locked. So, I used pkill to kill the dpkg process. As a result, all hell broke loose, and I had to reinstall Lucid to get the package-manager working again since apt-get became pretty useless. I even tried to use synaptic to fix the problem without any avail though. I hope it helps. -- package libmysqlclient16 5.1.41-3ubuntu12 failed to install/upgrade: error writing to '<standard output>': Success https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563240 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
