Public bug reported:
Hi I again tried the distribution upgrade via adept_manager. (a couple
weeks ago I tried the pre-release on my laptop it crashed after like 2
minutes leaving my machine with no X11) Is it me or is this the buggiest
release of ubuntu ever? This time, during the preparing the upgrade step
that application appears to hang, showing no signs of life for long
periods of time during the fetch files process. The progress bar is
stuck no movement for periods of 5min at a time or longer. No signs of
life. I probably would have thought less of this had it not happened on
the first file fetch. Also I have probably one of the fastest
connections available as I work in a research computing group at a
university, we have all gig switches dedicated fiber, and no one is here
but me on a saturday night at 6pm. When I see an app that is downloading
with no progress bar motion it makes me think crash, deadlock etc.. and
I cancel. After a couple of tries I noticed that it would apprently hang
for 5 minutes or so then blindingly fast zip through a few more
downloads and apparently hang again. I let it go all night, only to have
some other issue about not able to verify some packages, my internet
connection might be down,(but of course it wasn't) and they were like
standard KDE apps so something was up there too. Sorry for the long rant
here but my vote is for a later release of a more stable product.
