Bug Description
When hitting 'Install Updates' on the Update Manager, it briefly greys out the manager but does not actually proceed to update anything. syslog says something has been queued:
Nov 16 09:03:45 myserver AptDaemon: INFO: CommitPackages() was called: dbus.Array(
Nov 16 09:03:45 myserver AptDaemon.Trans: INFO: Queuing transaction /org/debian/
after a while a window pops up informing me that
"Task cannot be monitored or controlled"
The connection to the daemon was lost. Most likely, the background daemon crashed.
Details:
It seems that the daemon died.
Which is true since syslog tells us:
Nov 16 09:06:04 myserver AptDaemon: INFO: Quitting due to inactivity
Nov 16 09:06:04 myserver AptDaemon: INFO: Quitting was requested
apt-get per commandline works fine as a workaround.
