Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:

Thanks my friend!

When I did a sudo dpkg --configure -a and then did the update mgr, the
thing seems to have been fixed.

Question: (If you care to answer) Lately, when I leave the system on for
some hours, it hangs. No blinking kbd, nothing. just plain stuck. A
driver issue? Any ideas why it halts after a period of time? If I move
the mouse, the screen lights up but no response. Hard kill only option.
That's not UNIX!? ;)

Thanks for your effort! Apreciated!

/P

Sudo apt get remove

Then
Sudo apt get upgrade
Then try to install again

Hi Martin

I am very new to Ubuntu, still need to learn a lot.

What I did to solve my problem was to do an update with Update Manager
and once that was done the concern was resolved.

I then ran Ubuntu Software Center and was able to install programs as
per normal.

Thanks for your assistance.

Hello All,

I had the same issue which I have resolved by updating atpdaemon with the
synaptic package manager.
It works now.

The way I fixed it for myself was to run "dpkg -C" and remove the files that listed. Hope this helps. Thanks for all the work you guys are doing, it really means a lot.

John, I just got a new HP laptop and it had 4 partitions used for Windoze 7 leaving none for me to put Linux on. So I wrote to HP support to see what they all were, and a nice fellow at HP said they comprised a main, boot, recovery and "tools" for flashing the bios without using windows. So which one can I delete? He says to use the recovery partition, after making backup DVD's (5 of 'em!), since if you move partitions the recovery partition will get all screwed up anyhow and you won't be able to use it. "But I can't help you with Linux..." ...that's OK, thanks! So I deleted the recovery, made a logical partition of it, and now have 3 distros running happily (Bodhi, Mint XFCE and Ubuntu 10.10). Oh yeah, and Win7.

Thanks for all of your quick replies and answers to this possible
bug.I think that it's fixed.(All packages respond properly,and
Apt-Daemon installs them with no problems now.) At a
Ubuntu-workshop,we went into Grub,then to edit,by entering 'e'.Did a
recovery/reinstall.All problems seem to have been repaired within
system.(Problem was likely caused by my own inexperience-saw a
Terminal-script for disabling Root-User.Seemed simple enough: bad
frigging idea,of course.Could not re-enable Root-User! Grub seems to
have fixed all else;however it left comment: 'no longer required
fakeroot dkms patch' use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove these

So,that's where I'm at.Will have to look that up.Still too
clueless,where Terminal is concerned-don't trust myself there
yet.Thanks-Again; John.

Thanks but that is of no help. I am on Linux because of its superior performance, not because of money issues.

I fixed within two days finding a "manual" install for Java, then canceling (removing) the package that failed halfway through. Wasn't hard to find. And it's not about greed, it's about being a leader not a follower.

I dumped it and went with a partition of Redhat and Win XP 64 / mine had
nothing to do with money and all about security and speed.

I've had no problems with Redhat and must remain with Windows because of
some apps and other things related to Android.

Must I remind the children here this is a trouble shooting board, not
someones attempt to teach Microsoft economics?

I appreciate all the help thats been given and understand the app is free,
I'm a donator.

When some of the bugs disappear I'll return but have to much on my plate to
do reinstalls.

my goal is not to troubleshoot baboontu either.
all i have to do is just load my simple app and compile it.
that seems too hard for such a superior os that was cleanly installed from a
fresh distro into a virgin VM.

I'm no longer sure which bug-report this is.But,I did manage to fix
several issues with the Unity-Desktop via 'Compiz-Manager'.Look this
up in Ubuntu-Software.It seems to have good reviews,overall.For those
of you whose command-line skills are not that good,like mine; it
solved the Unity troubles,by deselecting this feature of 11.04
automatically! (Note: had previously selected "Ubuntu-Classic",at
bottom of screen,upon login.)Even this didn't seem to completely solve
problems with 11.04,though.It was only on install of Compiz-Manger
utillity,that 11.04 seemed to work smoothly again.
(It offers a graphical-interface for those who aren't very familar
with Terminal-commands or problem-solving via that route.Beyond that,I
know nothing;just that it worked for me.)You can also do an online
search: Fix Ubuntu 11.04.(Also did that.Helped in leading me to this
possible solution. John.

El inglés es el esperanto actual, si no lo conoces tienes un problema.
En lugar de quejarte preocúpate por solucionarlo.

mroman, tiene razón, quizá pequé de impetuoso pero no fué mi intención ser
soberbio. Es que ya el espectro es demasiado vasto, con mantenerse actuali-
zado en la profesión, incursionar en ésta propuesta interesantísima, fuente de
conocimientos; ofrece la dificultad de la comunicación l. Desde luego me dis-
culpo si le falté el respeto a alguien. Respecto a su comentario también algo
lacerante le voy a decir que soy de los que están de acuerdo con la máxima
de A. Einstein -Todos somos ignorantes, lo que ocurre es que no todos igno-
ramos las mismas cosas-. Sería un necio(y por lo visto así he sido considera-
do por ud.) si no admitiera que soy ignorante. Pero sé quizá de cosas que ud.
ignora y así recíprocamente. Aunque su respuesta me resulte(soy sincero) al-
go irritante, la acepto. Expresada no con eufemismo pero, con algo de tacto
es lo que era de esperar de gente que me ha atendido muy bién aquí. El s.o
lo hicieron uds. tienen todo el derecho de hacer lo que quieran. Yo me despido
y no voy a retornar, agradeciendo sus atenciones y deseándoles que sigan ha-
ciendo progresos en el desarrollo de éste excelente sistema(aunque no lo vaya
a usar). Para terminar, tengo asumido que el inglès es el idioma universal pero
el tiempo no alcanza para todo, no se puede estar actulizado al 100% en la pro-
fesión académica e incursionar en millones de desafíos que nos presenta la reali-
dad actual. Un cordial saludo, preséntole mis respetos a todos los que se invo-
lucran y orientan a los exotéricos como yo. Ud. debe estar vinculado a la filosofía.
Quizá me equivoque pero no dejo de percibir su disimulada convicción de que
posee una condición esotérica.

Bueno, hermano Colombiano, es verdad quizá se me fué un poco la mano con
algunas expresiones. No es consuetudinario en mi forma de comunicación, lo
que ocurre es que los desafíos constantes que nos presenta la realidad actual.
El desarrollo abarca todo el espectro y crece en progresión geométrica. Hasta
nuestras humanidades van sufriendo una metamorfosis de adecuación. Parece
que el término esteriotipado va a desaparecer del diccionario.
Es bién cierto lo que expresás en tu comentario, como lo veo así, lo acepto.
Debo decir que recibí un mail de un tal mroman o algo parecido y no fué tan ami-
gable como el tuyo. Desde luego que obtuvo la respuesta que consideré adecuada.
No es mi intención faltarle el respeto a nadie pero, quizá cuando éste Sr. tomaba
la mamadera yo programaba para el colegio de Farmacéuticos, el colegio Italiano
en Clipper 5.01 con una XT que tenía un rígido de 500mg y en ese entonces direccio-
nabamos la memoria, hasta que apareció Memmaker(no recuerdo si se escribía así).
Debo agregar que no cobré un peso y la aplicación la usaban todos los farmacéuticos.
Hago ésto como un pasatiempo. Estuve alejado como 10 años por una Depresión Ma-
yor que todavía tengo restos. También he programado en C++ y vb 6.0. Macros en
Excel con código basic, un poema, já.
Éste muchachito me desquició pero, apareciste vos y me cambiaste el ánimo. Quizá
por respeto a tu considerada nota, reinstale ubuntu. Sería bueno que loquitos como
yo tengan contactos con verdadera gente como vos.
Mirá ya tengo una hija a quién le derivé casi todas las responsabilidades. Es Procura-
dora, Abogada con el doctorado y Escribana. Asimismo hay viejos que únicamente qui-
ren tratar conmigo. En éste momento acabo de recibir otro mensaje de uds. ya van co-
mo cien. Todos en inglés, no les doy ni cinco de pelota, directamente los elimino. Ahí
recibí otro. Bueh! se vé que se preocupan y yo no soy importante para nada.
Casi te cuento toda mi vida Já. Un abrazo hermano latinoamericano.

Es la tercera vez que recibo éste mensaje, veo que se sintió muy indig-
nado por mis comentarios. No se preocupe más, ya estoy en Windows,
no los voy a molestar más. Tengo para sostener el presente sistema con
todo lo que involucra. Lo de linux fué un desafío, una apuesta que hice con
un montón de amigos en razón de mi conocido pasatiempo que es la pro-
gramación. Perdí la apuesta, han visto que tuve linux unos días y les expre-
saba las bondades que le veía al sistema pero, logré que se rieran mucho
cuando vieron mi notebook otra vez con windows seven(para decirlo en el
idioma que le gusta).Saludos
P.D. esperanto...?

 Renovado placer al recibir éste mail tan considerado de tu parte.
También el agradecimiento es recíproco. Nosotros, que tenemos una idiosin-
crasia diferente, porque los latinos tenemos nuestras particularidades, nos
permite comunicarnos de la forma correcta. Si, vería con agrado que te man-
tuvieras en contacto. No me entiendo, con la gente que presume de esoté-
rica, no pueden controlar la presunción de sus condiciones de superdotados.
Fijáte cómo vos lográs comunicarte sin incovenientes y amigablemente. El
hecho es que sos un componente de éste medio que lima asperezas, detec-
tando con presición las dificultades que te presenta tu interlocutor es muy
valorada y eso es lo que rescato. Como dije anteriormente querido herma-
no, no soy nadie pero; en realidad también nadie tiene el peso suficiente co-
mo parecer más. Insisto, el espectro es muy vasto y quizá si ésta gente que
se maneja con, a mi criterio de una forma soberbia, se tuvieran que topar en
una guardia Médica(cómo es mi caso) con un politraumatísmo; seguramente
no tendrían ni idea de que hacer. Nadie puede saber de todo, como te dije,
ésto es un pasatiempo para mi. Además desde aquella época de la XT con
la shell y el D.O.S como s.o. no me pasó desapercibida la importancia y las
potencialedades que ofrecía, desde que advertí ésto, me deslumbró y me
convertí en un apasionado del sistema. No te miento, he llegado a pasar más
de 18 horas programando. Bueno, pasó el tiempo y estuve marginado lo su-
ciente como para perder un poco el ritmo. Los conocimiento que no se prac-
tican se pierden. No te entretengo más. El tema en el que insisto es que la
comunicación consta de dos elementos fundamentales; la codificación y la
decodificación si falta alguno de éstos componentes básicos ocurre la in-
terrupción de la misma. El resultado es que NO TE COMUNICÁS y eso lleva
implícito la imposibilidad de cristalizar un contacto. Te agradezco todo, vaya
para vos un abrazo fraterno de mi parte y de algunos amigos que en éste
momento están compartiendo tu mensaje conmigo(no pueden creer que
haya logrado ésta vía).

Hermano Nicolás(el sustantivo vá de corazón, no es un término más),
tenés la virtud de haber renovado mi inquietud respecto a linux. Ah!
no es tan complejo, todo lo que no se conoce es difícil, de momento
que empezás a estudiar el tema y vas perdiendo ignorancia la cosa
resulta fácil(porque se va conociendo más). No me interesa por el
momento el entorno gráfico que, si bién es muy amigable, lo puedes
manejar como en windows. Si me despierta un inmenso interés el
conocimento del funcionamiento de los componentes del sistema y
el regreso a la línea de comandos que tanto extrañaba.
Tengo bién claro, desde siempre, que los comandos se tramitan en
inglés, esta asumido y por cierto que los interpreto bastante bién.
Lo que ocurre es que cuando vos necesitás asistencia es otra co-
sa; no podés intentar resolver problemas si no entendés de que se
tratan los mensajes que te envían. Éste contacto, ameno por cierto,
demuestra que alguien que está intentando seriamente incorporar
otro s.o., requiere de informes que pueda entender. Ya te digo, no
tengo necesidad de salirme de windows, cuento afortunadamente con
los medios para incorporar cualquier programa original que se me dé
la gana. Lo de linux es nada más que un desafío pero, si se va a con-
vertir en un tema controversial, no es beneficioso para nadie. No me
cuesta nada dar un paso al costado y seguir disfrutando ya sea editan-
do videos en Sony vega pro, Powerpoint, Photoshop y con ésto tengo
suficiente para entretenerme(los manejo 100%) y compartir muchas
cosas con mis amigos. Solamente sugiero, repito no soy nadie y ésto
no es un consejo; traten de envíarles a quiener recién se inician, co-
municaciones en el idioma que dominen. Mucho se alegra windows de
saber que nos encontramos con ésta dificultad y naturalmente deriva
en el abandono de gente valiosa que estaba realmente interesada.
Nada más, ésto no pretende ser un aporte pero te lo envío porque
quizá pueda ser de interés para gente como vos que entiende el pro-
blema, está dispuesta a contagiar el interés al s.o. a todo el mundo
y se toma el tiempo que considera necesario para llevarle alivio al
usuario. Un abrazo renovado.

Mire entre los desarrolladores estoy de acuerdo que usen un idioma
que conozcan en todo el mundo. Acá yo entiendo castellano y de lo
dice el mensaje no entiendo nada. Sugiero que dejen el inglés para
los noveles y con nosotros, los nuevos usuarios, al menos hasta que
maduremos un poco el s.o. lo hagan en mi caso en castellano.
Buen domingo. Cariños a la flia.

Por ahí, tanto joder, te puede servir:
                                   Tu sistema se vuelve inestable por momentos,
yo no sé si se debe a que está en una partición dentro de Windows.
Me tengo que volver loco para que me acepte la contraseña, afortu-
nadamente hice dos usuarios. Pero me tiene pudrido así que en és-
tas condiciones y sin apoyo en castellano lo que hago cuando no me
abre me voy a Windows y me quedo tranquilo ahí. Cuando vuelvo a
encender la notebook pruebo y si me hace lo mismo me voy a Win-
dows 7 que lo tengo original(no problems, ok?).
Cariños a la flia.
P.D. Sabrías decirme en que lugar del cuerpo humano encuentro la
       apófisis clinoides, vamos, seguro que lo sabés sin ir a google.Já.

Mire entre los desarrolladores estoy de acuerdo que usen un idioma
que conozcan en todo el mundo. Acá yo entiendo castellano y de lo
dice el mensaje no entiendo nada. Sugiero que dejen el inglés para
los noveles y con nosotros, los nuevos usuarios, al menos hasta que

Buen domingo. Cariños a la flia.

Thank you very much, but if I changed the motherboardincreases, the ram to 2GB, it worked perfectly when I triedprinting to a laserjet printer I recognized it and downloadedevery time I had to use a plugin; dhlip-3.11.1.

Although personally acquire enough experience to do well inUbuntu, it is not acceptable to have to download a plugin every time you use the printer. It indamisible. Again, I looked for theplugin on Ubuntu page that referred me and gave me to download "shlip 3.1.1.5, I tried to install a terminal with thecommand bash and I refused.'s It, but Ubuntu has generated much interest me, I do not have with the approval of my peers toreinstall in our study. reaffirm the cordial greetings.

Let me know if you would like me to run the reproduction steps or if you need any further information.

Being unable to accept the EULA is a sign that the problem as it has
been stated still exists on your system. You need to run a dpkg command
and then 'sudo apt-get install [software whose name i forgot]', which is
buried somewhere in all the crap that people have been sending, sort of
like writing code but not bothering to document what they are doing. If
you go back into the history of this ridiculous bug-track, you'll find
the commands to which I am referring.

Hi Surya

Sorry but I'm in hollydays now , it's why i dont looking my email since times.
Anyway i have the same trouble of you, my problem coming from the packet "customiz...etc.deb" (i dont remember exactly it's name), it was installed when i make a update and stay in the cache and i cant delete it, i try every command from the terminal i can find on the net, ask help but nothing work then after about 10 days i reinstall the OS on my old OS,
When you reinstall, ( don't format) you have a choice to install the new OS on the old one and keep all your config, softs etc... and it control if all your softs is rigth for the OS 11.04 if not it delete it (if you have make a update and you keep all your softs from 10.10) it's a very good option.
It take long time do do this job, for me all the night until afternoon but it do it very well, no problem but make a copy first of all your important things you have on this OS, in case!!!

Ubuntu 11.04 have still some bug somewhere but it's a very good OS with softwares for about everythings, very fast, light, easy to do and all for free...
I hope this info help you, let me know.

Have a good day.

In addition to being useful for technical support about Launchpad itself, https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion is also appropriate for reporting problems with Launchpad. If someone posts a question about these problems, they might get solved. (Bugs can be reported against Launchpad itself as well, but it is often a good idea to post a question first; questions tend to get answered rapidly and, for this kind of question, by Canonical employees charged with maintaining, supporting, and developing Launchpad.)

Before posting a question there reporting that Launchpad is not working right, I recommend both browsing and searching at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad to see if it's already been posted.

The error I am experiencing is something different. I am sorry for my previous comment.
The bug I experience is as that if I reject EULA then also the package is marked as installed.

I ran the command sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer and declined the EULA . I have attached the screenshots. I rerun the command but I am getting output "ttf-mscorefonts-installer is already the newest version". But actually it is not installed. It is not taking me to EULA page to accept it. How to fix this?

tanks for the answer,

the pakage ttf-mscorefonts-installer exist, it sems to be installed,
anyway the answer on the the terminal is :

E: Impossible d'obtenir le verrou /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Ressource
temporairement non disponible)
E: Impossible de verrouiller le répertoire d'administration
(/var/lib/dpkg/). Il est possible qu'un autre processus l'utilise.

with synaptic everything is blocked, because the system want's to execute
all the installations or desinstallation

you have programed. And I can't install or desinstall the pakages with
java,

the same events occurs with the terminal as you can see and the
restauration possibility at the loading system.
 this is the action wanted by the system

gsfonts-x11 (version 0.21) sera mis à niveau vers la version 0.21
sun-java6-bin (version 6.21dlj-0ubuntu1~maverick1~ppa1) sera mis à niveau

Sebastian Heinlein (glatzor) wrote : Updated

In Precise the issue doesn't appear since there is a race between the
simulate() and the run() method which eats the exception. This race
situation has been fixed in trunk recently that hasn't been uploaded
yet.

Furthermore aptdaemon trunk now catches the exception in the
apt.cache.Cache.required_download call and lets the transaction fail
with an ERROR_INCOMPLETE_INSTALL. So we won't get any bug reports of
this anymore - although the issue isn't fixed on the lower level
(debconf/apt).

Unfortunately software-center doesn't handle the
ERROR_INCOMPLETE_INSTALL correctly yet. It just displays the error
message but doesn't offer to run the FixIncompleteInstall() method of
aptdaemon which would basically run "dpkg --configure -a" and fix the
system.

Additionally the current error message doesn't contain any hind to run
sudo dpkg --configure -a manually.

But it seems to be a first step to resolve the issue. I will try to
create a working patch for s-c in the next days.

By manual configuration of dpkg you mean executing "sudo dpkg
--configure -a" in a terminal? Just to be sure.

      Furthermore raise ERROR_INCOMPLETE_INSTALL to signal the client
      that a call of FixIncompleteInstall() (basically a dpkg --configure -a
      call) fixes the issue
    - Fix: Sync all properties of the D-Bus transaction in the client before
      emitting the Finished signal (fixes LP: #747172) to ensure all changed
      properties are available (the order of received signals is not
      guranteed and the finished signal could be received before an error
      signal)
      Additionally raise the timeout before removing a transaction from
      D-Bus on the server side to give clients more time to sync
    - Fix wrong variable names in the download progress (fixes LP: #971839,
      LP: #976521)
    - Fix: Catch a possible pipe reading error (fixes LP: #733090)
    - Fix: Don't show the name of aptdaemon in crash reports
      (fixes LP: #973370)
      Aptdaemon is a system daemon and should work and fail silently
    - Fix: Fallback to a default terminal width of 80 chars (fixes LP: #948588)
      The width request could fail on standard input/output redirections
    - Fix: Don't use a reserved name for the simulate helper function
    - Fix: Convert exceptions to string before raising TransactionFailed()
    - Fix wrong variable name in the add license key failed error message
    - Fix: Don't overwrite the GObject.GObject.disconnect in
      aptdemon.client.Transaction by renaming the method to
      _disconnect_from_dbus()
    - Fix: Allow to cancel a transaction which hasn't been queued yet and
      is still in limbo
    - Fix: Raise NotImplementedError instead of ImplementedError
    - Add a test case for config file changes handling
  * debian/aptdaemon.install:
    - Don't ship the obsolete .desktop file anymore

Brian, the bug wasn't actually fixed on the apt/debconf level. We just
wrote a some recover functionality for the high level package managers
(s-c and aptd).

It seems to be difficult for everybody, we are blocked, it's possible, it
depens perhaps on many thinks could hapen before the alert, can we remove
or replace a part of the this OS

__en francais : pourrait-on remplacer la partie infirme - malade qui nous
bloque tous, une fois soigné un morceau l'autre suite aux concéquence tombe
malade lui aussi. c'est qui ce passe en medecine, dans le batiment, ou
autre. Quand ça coute trop cher a réparer on remplace par du neuf. Peut on
remplacer une partie ou plus de l' OS

The reason for this bug is a missing call of pkgApplyStatus()
(apt-pkg/algorithms.cc). So we fail if there are packages in the
reqreinst state.

See also lp:~aptdaemon-developers/aptdaemon/fix-cannot-locate-file for a
regression test.

We should add something similar to CacheFile::CheckDeps
(cmdline/apt-get.cc) to apt.cache.Cache
