I am now running Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 with GNOME 3.18 and know for a fact
that I did not type anything wrong, I simply executed 'sudo apt-get
dist-upgrade' and this is how it went:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following packages will be upgraded:
oracle-java8-installer
1 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade.
Need to get 23.1 kB of archives.
After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y
Abort.
Is there any way of checking why exactly it aborted or what exact input
it received? Because if you are right about this, then even if it a bug
in something else, there has to be a bug somewhere because I really did
nothing special here and it's not even a remote session or anything...

Title:
Apt did the opposite of what I told it to do when it asked me a yes or
no question
Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
New
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Today I executed the command:
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
And this was the output:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following packages will be upgraded:
aptdaemon aptdaemon-data python-aptdaemon python-aptdaemon.gtk3widgets
python3-aptdaemon python3-aptdaemon.gtk3widgets
python3-aptdaemon.pkcompat
wpasupplicant
8 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade.
Need to get 1,146 kB of archives.
After this operation, 3,072 B of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
So I answered 'y' (without the quotes), and this was the output:
Abort.
And it seemingly aborted instead of doing what I said, although when I
ran the command again, it installed the upgrades instead of aborting,
but I just thought that I should report this as it seemed buggy as
this is not what it is meant to do.
