[Bug 85979] Re: Wrong nice value while upgrading debconf
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 68267 *** I too see this bug. There were about 390 packages to upgrade today, and they all downloaded. When it started up, it gave me the nice popup. Below is a version of what was displayed in the main window - that is, not the popup. (Actually it was from a later crash.) The first package to fail was bash. I went to a command line and did sudo apt-get update and it told me to do a sudo apt-get --configure -a which I dutifully did. Then I re-ran adept-updater and it got further, but when it reached x11-common it had similar problems. This I fixed again with the apt-get --configure -a , but adept-updater still wouldn't work. So this time I just finished the upgrade on the command line sudo apt-get upgrade and it went fine. Afterwards, there was no further packages shown by adept-updater. I had noticed that adept was one of the packages that had been reinstalled, and I used adept to install firefox. It worked, but I still saw the DESTROY created... message below.

In bug #68267, I suggest a possible fix to x11-common. Mainly, to replace: if [ $? -ne 2 ]; then by: if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then in validate_nice_value () of the config script. -- Wrong nice value while upgrading debconf https://launchpad.net/bugs/85979 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
