Bug Description
my upgrade from 20.04 to 20.10 hung on `libc` with a message that was something like "checking init scripts". I had to kill it from the terminal, and then of course the whole upgrade failed. after the upgrade failed, X repeatedly crashed until I had to log out.
Running `aptitude dist-upgrade` from a console seems to have resolved the upgrade successfully, including re-running the `libc` config stage that failed before, so it's unclear what caused it to hang.
