Unfortunately i have to install a package, so i can't wait for a solution. I have uninstalll the package with
dpkg --remove --force-remove.reinstallreq mysql-server-5.1 At this point i have to end the deamon manually, because the command hangs again! dpkg --purge --force-remove.reinstallreq mysql-server-5.1 Then I installed the necessary updates and installed the mysql server again. The new installation takes also a lot of time at the postinstallation script, i think again at the deamon commands. Sorry for my impatience but i need the updates urgend. Let me know if i should provide you more information. thanks -Kirsten -- Update mysql-server-5.1 hangs up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/567179 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
