Public bug reported: Binary package hint: network-manager
After upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04, clean shutdown or reboot was not possible as the shutdown sequence stalls on /etc/rc[06].d/S35networking . Note that debug of shutdown/reboot showed wpa_supplicant was attempted to be killed by S20sendsigs and was in uninterruptible sleep One work-around was to ln -s ../init.d/NetworkManager K89NetworkManager in /etc/rc[06].d , although this may not be a general fix for those with more complicated networking situations. (In the case above, the NetworkManager controlled the wireless card, and there were no network mounted filesystems.) ~% lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 ~% apt-cache policy network-manager network-manager: Installed: 0.7.1~rc4.1.cf199a964-0ubuntu2 Candidate: 0.7.1~rc4.1.cf199a964-0ubuntu2 Version table: *** 0.7.1~rc4.1.cf199a964-0ubuntu2 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ~% apt-cache policy wpasupplicant wpasupplicant: Installed: 0.6.6-2ubuntu1 Candidate: 0.6.6-2ubuntu1 Version table: *** 0.6.6-2ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- wpa_supplicant prevents shutdown or reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/374591 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
