I have also had this same "Loading Software List" hang However this is not an upgrade but a completely clean Kubuntu 13.10 install just now on a brand new drive.
During install I ticked mp3 software download, and download updates during install & whole disk with lvm. A bog standard install almost. First boot / login into KDE system and clicking on the gear / available updates that appeared and "Install Updates" button. Some activity and then "Loading Software List" with blue marker perpetually moving back and forth. last line in /var/log/dpkg.log is:- status installed initramfs-tools:all 0.103ubuntu1 Shutdown via KDE and same "logout cancelled by muon-updater" as also reported previously. Ended process muon-updater via System Monitor and then Shutdown via KDE menu - Searching for Additional Drivers dialog popped up momentarily during KDE / system shutdown. Hope this helps as its an almost instant failure of Kubuntu upon clean install on clean hardware. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245061 Title: muon-updater stuck at Loading Software List To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/muon/+bug/1245061/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
