Public bug reported:
I had pretty much a virgin machine that I had built as follows:
*) Build a machine from the Ubuntu Dapper CD (*not* Kubuntu).
*) Log in and install all updates
*) Install easy-ubuntu
*) Install the latest version of KDE as described here:
http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-354.php
*) OK, now try to upgrade it using Adept. I edited all the dappers in
the repository list to edgys and did a full upgrade, and Apply.
*) Ran for quite a long time. After about 60% of the way through, it
stopped, claiming that that continuing would break a package or cause
some other problem (I don't remember the precise message,
unfortunately). I see from the dpkg.log file it was finished with the
localization files for openoffice. I don't know if there are any other
log files that could tell me more exactly what the problem was.
*) The machine was fairly fubar. Adept refused to open again, claiming
that there was some configuration problem. It requested using apt-setup
and apt-get --update to see if that fixed things, but the former doesn't
exist and the latter didn't help.
*) The machine refuses to reboot properly. If I don't use safe mode it
just hangs, and if I do use safe mode it refuses to talk to the network.
The machine is an old Sony Vaio PCG-XG19, if that helps.
