I'm sorry you didn't like it.

Re: Upgrade was a disaster as usual

2016-12-11 Thread teo teo
You are the one who behaves like a troll here. I talk about serious
critical issues, and you systematically reply with jokes.

So LTS... yeah right.

1) As if LTSs worked significantly better
2) sticking to an LTS for 2 f***ing years means sticking to tremendously
obsolete software, usually full of bugs that have already been fixed
upstream (by the way that is usually already true when the ubuntu release
is brand new, let alone two years later),
3) 16.04 actually *is* LTS, and upgrading to it has broken my system. Or
are you implying that those who made the "mistake" to upgrade to a non-LTS
are to be punished forever, by having their computer bricked even when
trying to "correct" their mistake by upgrading to the LTS?
4) That a release is not LTS doesn't mean that it is not even supposed to
be barely usable and safe. And especially, that you shouldn't be able to
upgrade OUT of it.

If your approach to issues that make Ubuntu unusable is in any way
representative of how Ubuntu is maintained, that would explain the whole
thing.

I guess my biggest mistake was to choose ubuntu in the first place. I'll
have to try OpenSUSE.


By the way,
To the millions of people experiencing the same problem, in case they may
find this message by googling, I fixed the issue by running:
  apt-get install -f

Ah, and after that, I got a message that said "The upgrade was complete but
there was some errors". The computer didn't restart.

What the f**k am I supposed to do??

Upgrade was a disaster as usual

2016-12-11 Thread teo teo
I'm SICK of upgrading every time with the fear of bricking my computer.

Every single distribution upgrade, something goes awfully wrong and I am
left with an unusable system, which up to now I've always been able to
recover, not without pain.

The upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04 has been no exception.

This time, after seeing a couple of times the message described in bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1561467, plus a
couple or three other crash reports, I suddenly got this error:

"Could not install the upgrades

The upgrade has aborted. Your system could be in an unusable state. A
recovery will run now (dpkg --configure -a)"

Doesn't look promising.

It's unbelievable how carelessly the releases are released, and it's even
more unbelievable that critical bugs that leave the user with an unusable
machine go unfixed for so long (the next version has already been out there
for a while).

F**k you, Ubuntu.
