Public bug reported: I was loged in as a user authenticated remotely with an nfs home who had sudo access. aptitude safe-upgrade froze on nis(or at least it took more than a couple of hours to configure) Killed aptidude and loged in as a local user(the system claimed to no longer recognize the remote user). Tried dpkg-reconfigure and froze on nis again Currently trying to remove nis (sudo apt-get remove nis) and for about 20' on
