Public bug reported: Ubuntu 17.10 fresh install
sudo apt-get install openvpn The above command causes an indefinite terminal hang. And I have to manually kill processes to get apt working again. Here are the errors I receive after killing `sudo kill -9` processes with `openvpn` in the name: invoke-rc.d: initscript openvpn, action "cond-restart" failed. Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/openvpn.service → /lib/systemd/system/openvpn.service. W: APT had planned for dpkg to do more than it reported back (30 vs 34).
