Public bug reported:
It doesn't always seem to happen when installing recommended updates for
Ubuntu 7.10, but frequently the Update Manager hangs in the "Applying
Changes" window and the progress bar stops. In the Details window, it's
not prompting for any user input, in today's case, it just says
"ldconfig deferred processing now taking place" and it's been like that
for 30 mins or so.
Not really sure how to debug or recreate this, but if I run strace on
the parent pid for the synaptic process, I see this over & over again:
time(NULL) = 1203086787
ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0
poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=6, events=POLLIN}, {fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 3,
0) = 0
nanosleep({0, 5000000}, NULL) = 0
read(34, 0xbf873ebe, 1) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
time(NULL) = 1203086787
Not sure if that's relevant or not.
The only way to get out of the window seems to be to kill the pids,
which probably isn't a good idea if it's in the middle of installing
kernel updates...
Please let me know what additional info I can provide.
Thank you in advance for your support.
