Dear all,
I've been trying to fix this problem, but have not found a solution
yet. (I've also asked at the aptosid list without success.)
Before I resigned myself to a reinstall, I thought I'd post the output of
strace apt-get dist-upgrade
(I killed the process a few seconds after it got stuck.) The first
4000 lines are here:
http://www.math.utk.edu/~finotti/misc/DU.log
At line 37886, we start to see
pselect6(43, [0 40 42], NULL, NULL, {0, 500000}, {[], 8}) = 0 (Timeout)
wait4(8948, 0x7ffd2430a5c0, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
repeat over and over. At line 38006, we see:
select6(43, [0 40 42], NULL, NULL, {0, 500000}, {[], 8}) = 1 (in
[40], left {0, 264028})
read(40, "(Reading database ... \r", 1024) = 23
write(1, "(Reading database ... \r", 23) = 23
write(4, "(Reading database ... \r", 23) = 23
wait4(8948, 0x7ffd2430a5c0, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
before the pattern above starts to repeat again.
Of the last 117592 lines, most are the (repeating ones) above, only
1012 are different. I've post these different ones, i.e., the result
of
tail -117592 DU.txt | grep -F -v 'wait4(8948, 0x7ffd2430a5c0,
WNOHANG, NULL) = 0' | grep -F -v 'pselect6(43, [0 40 42], NULL, NULL,
{0, 500000}, {[], 8}) = 0 (Timeout)'
here:
http://www.math.utk.edu/~finotti/misc/DU2.log
Again, just a last attempt.
Best to all,
Luis
If you haven't already try:
rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf
apt-get update
and if needed
dpkg --configure -a
