** Description changed: TEST CASE: This bug is only triggered on e.g. LDAP systems. So we need a regression test to ensure that nothing breaks with it from the SRU testers: 1. enabled karmic-proposed 2. setup a proxy 3. run update-manager -d 4. upgrade to lucid 5. verify that nothing breaks - If you have a setup with external authentication, please test the fix in - luicd-proposed. + - If you have a setup with external authentication, please test the fix in luicd-proposed. + - If you do not have a setup with external authentication, add a non-existent user as 1rst member of the admin group. The /etc/group file must have an entry looking like: + admin:x:111:nonexistentuser,adminuser + **WARNING** do not remove your admin user name from the admin group. + ===== Binary package hint: update-manager I tried to upgrade my laptop (Acer WLMi5003), running Ubuntu 9.10 to Ubuntu 10.10. I tried to this two times but both times upgrade fails with following information: ___________________________________________________________________ Could not install the upgrades The upgrade is now aborted. Your system could be in an unusable state. A recovery will run now (dpkg --configure -a).
