I repeated the experiment a few minutes ago - this time redirecting output as follows:
aptd -td 2> apd.log I started this about 15:04. I then ran update-manager at about 15:06. There were a number of packages (I think 9) to be installed. Then, around 15:12, I clicked on the install button. The application seemed to freeze up again. Finally, around 15:17, I tried to close update-manager. The program would not close, so again I used the Gnome "Force Quit" applet to close update-manager. This seems to be shown in the log file as 15:17:04 AptDaemon.Trans [DEBUG]: Removing transaction I then used "apt-get dist-upgrade" to install the programs. "aptd -d" was still running, but there was no output to the log file due to this run of apt-get. I then exited from aptd. I have attached the stderr output of aptd. ** Attachment added: "output of aptd -td" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptdaemon/+bug/443344/+attachment/1773095/+files/apd.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/443344 Title: Message "daemon died" appeared while running update-manager [11.04] -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
