Near fatal upgrade from Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 (Apache hung)

Bug Description

I did a dist-upgrade to 8.10 from 8.04. When it got to the stage of upgrading some mono packages, it tried to stop and start Apache. I don't know what it was doing, but it hung forever (I let it sit there for several hours). Finally, I realized it was never going to finish. I tried hitting Ctrl-C, but that would have killed the whole upgrade and would have required me to install from scratch. The key was to open a terminal and do a "killall apache2", which allowed the process to continue.

Thanks for your bugreport.

Could you please attach the logs in /var/log/dist-upgrade/* so that we can try to figure out what package caused this problem?

Thanks,
 Michael
