Folks: Once again in Lu can't access Discourse, so posting here . . . running kinetic this morning and executed "apt update && apt dist-upgrade" . . . showed a few hundred packages to install . . . midway through on #52??? there was a "hang" on what might have been "initrd - 5.15xxxxx" and there was an "error" showing in the update applet . . . something about "package number count"??? Concurrently FireFox disappeared from the internet menu . . . .
I couldn't "ctrl-c" out of the hang in the console . . . couldn't launch synaptic because "apt" was locking access . . . didn't know the precise command to "force quit apt" . . . I also tried "apt -f install" but that wouldn't override apt's lock on the system. Finally just shut down out of it. On cold boot in spite of hanging "halfway" . . . now it showed only one package left to upgrade . . . a language package?? But it showed "5.15 xxx" to be removed in "autoremove"?? so it was previously trying to install it and then changed its mind?? uname -r right now shows 5.13.0-16-generic . . . I didn't update grub via the master grub controller in another OS . . . to see if that would get the kernel closer to 6.15??? Running a multi-boot grub situation . . . . But there hasn't been this kind of "hang" in running apt in Lu in quite some time . . . ????? something got sideways in the dist-upgrade in kinetic . . . .
