Public bug reported:
Did the apt-get update immediately before the offered upgrade to 18.04.
Went through smoothly until around 98%, when it stated that the update could
not be completed and the system might be unstable. It would do some 'configure
-a' (if memory serves right), and informed that it could not roll back. Then
the upgrade process exited. Then - before manual reboot - I was offered two new
updates: movieeditor and feh. I accepted, but stopped when it wanted to remove
libcal3, systemd-shim and virtualbox.
Luckily, after reboot, it came up, but remains not upgradeable. It stops at an
uninstallable systemd-shim. Any apt-get update doesn't help.
Observations throughout the upgrade process:
1. Early on, it had already popped up a message stating that systemd-shim could
not be updated. Though then, I could continue, and did.
2. While doing the kernel update, it repeatedly warned 'no matching swap device
is available'. I had/have no clue why, since I always had one, and have
configured a partition as swap space.
Actions: I had accepted at all questions of replacing / keeping conf-s
with 'replace'.
Now I'm looking forward to some help on completing the update, and
removing the old packages (this also stops with systemd-shim).
