Unfortunately I've experienced the hang using apt 0.7.6ubuntu14.
When the update with apt 0.7.6ubuntu14 came out, there were also some
openoffice.org files that wanted to update. I intentionally installed
apt and apt-utils 0.7.6ubuntu14 first. Then did apt-get update to pick
up the openoffice.org files, and during that update, the apt-get tool
hung twice. the first time was on:
Preparing to replace openoffice.org-core 1:2.3.0-1ubuntu4 (using
.../openoffice.org-core_1%3a2.3.0-1ubuntu5_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement openoffice.org-core ...
I don't recall where it hung the second time, apparently I only recorded
the first one.
Was that before or after I fixed my locale problem? I don't know. What
happened: when I ran k3b, it complained about a locale problem. I had
LANG="en_US.UTF-8" set from /etc/environment, but I had LC_ALL="POSIX"
set in my .bashrc. Now I have changed my .bashrc to set only
LC_COLLATE="POSIX" and LC_TIME="POSIX", and k3b works again.
There's nothing to upgrade at the moment, but I will post my next
experience, positive or negative.
