Well, in exasperation, and with a sense of trepidation, I rebooted the
system.  Exasperation, because I'd run out of ideas and clues.
Trepidation, because I had no idea whether the machine would reboot
successfully.  All went well, thankfully.

I then retried the upgrade and that proceeded without errors.  I have no
idea what was wrong, but clearly it was a transient issue.

So, problem overcome.

Problems upgrading grub-pc

[Brad Rogers]

Hello,

Today, upgrading a testing install at the end of which report was
"setting up grub-pc"  The problem is that it just sat there, and didn't
complete.  Attempts to correct the problem with;
 '# dpkg --configure grub-pc'
also failed to complete the update.

Downgrading to the previous version didn't help, that too just sits
there failing to complete.

Anybody else seeing this?

If anybody has a solution, I'd love to know what it is, as my searches
failed to get me anywhere.
