@f-abeni: while it might not seem like it, that's actually good! So, yes, if you can provide the history.log and possibly, alter the postinst that hangs locally to use `set +x`, re-run update-manager and see if history.log has the output from that postinst and we can hopefully figure out what exactly is hanging. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1646739 Title: package php7.0-xml 7.0.13-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 128 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/1646739/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For those that do see this issue, is it reproducible from update- manager? That is, once it happens, if you cancle/quit update-manager, and then try to use it to update again, does it again hang (e.g., on php7.0-xml as in this bug report). If so, we might be able to get some more debugging by modifying the postinst locally. @f-abeni: do you have any local modifications to your php-xml .ini file snippet? Also, if you do re-encounter the hang, does /var/log/apt/history.log contain the "Use of uninitialized value" errors already (before you hit cancel or kill update-manager)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1646739 Title: package php7.0-xml 7.0.13-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 128 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/1646739/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For those who filed bugs I just duped here, there seems to be an underlying issue with update-manager invoking aptdaemon which in turn seems to think it needs to call a maintscript (although it doesn't necessarily) which then errors out. Using cli tools instead, this does not occur. This is not specific to php7.0 at all, but is something seen across many packages always involving update-manager. I have seen at least a few historic bugs (supposedly fixed) and am still doing archaeology to see if something maybe was dropped: LP: #804250, LP: #779970, LP: #845367. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1646739 Title: package php7.0-xml 7.0.13-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 128 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/1646739/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for the reponse! Which GUI program did you use? I am thinking now, given that apt succeeded, that it is a bug in the GUI program itself, although I'm not sure where.

The system was performing an "apt upgrade" via Gnome Software Update. As usual, after the download part, a new line appears for each package while that package is actually installed and configured. E.g. Configuring php7.0-mysql Configuring php7.0-json Configuring php7.0-mbstring and so on. When it came to "Configuring php7.0-xml", no further progress appeared, the CPU usage was quite high. After about 20 minutes I killed the process. No, I don't have any local package modification.
