Bug ID: 440157
Summary: Apper keeps running / is stuck installing and is
blocked for further use after upgrading kernel
Product: apper
Version: unspecified
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dantt...@gmail.com
Reporter: myndstr...@protonmail.ch
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When upgrading the Linux kernel with Apper it is stuck at 98 % installing. When
closing Apper there is running-icon (blue circle) in the tray bar. It shows
"Updating packages" and no progress.
When opening Apper again and searching for anything (e.g. the name of a
package) it just loads but doesn't show any results – when closing Apper again
it iterates the number in the circle in the tray-bar and beneath the "Updating
packages" progress bar without progress there is a (or multiple) "Searching by
package name" with the blue progress-indicator moving from
left-to-right-and-back.
The kernel *seems* to be upgraded just fine but a restart is needed. It would
be best if no restart was needed for this but if a restart is needed Apper
should not get frozen and e.g. display a correct message-box.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use Debian10 stable/KDE
2. Upgrade the kernel by pressing Upgrade in Apper
3. Wait until installation proceeded and freezes
OBSERVED RESULT
It gets stuck at 98 % (maybe sometimes 99 % or so) with Apper not being usable
thereafter.
EXPECTED RESULT
It should finish installation and maybe display a message like "restart needed
to apply kernel upgrades"
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Debian10 stable
