Looking at the output from pkcon -v, it seems it hangs during install/configuration of the samba-common package (it is the package that is chosen after plasma-widget-kimpanel-backend- ibus-4:4.7.2-0ubuntu1.all, so it seems that apper was still showing the previous one).
I forgot to add on my original report, this is on a 64-bit Kubuntu oneiric install from the normal cd. ** Attachment added: "Output of running pkcon -v update" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/packagekit/+bug/905415/+attachment/2636276/+files/output.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/905415 Title: Hangs when doing full upgrade after fresh oneiric install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/packagekit/+bug/905415/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
