Hmm thanks Raphaël. So files were still around that were unowned, that really should not happen. Thanks for the exact file names.
The files you had in your case were part of libseccomp2 2.3.1-2.1ubuntu4 which is what Ubuntu had in Bionic-release. libseccomp2 | 2.3.1-2.1ubuntu4 | bionic | But before you'd be able to upgrade to Focal (do-release-upgrade will otherwise block) that would even in Bionic be upgraded to 2.4.3-1ubuntu3.18.04.3 libseccomp2 | 2.4.3-1ubuntu3.18.04.3 | bionic-security | libseccomp2 | 2.4.3-1ubuntu3.18.04.3 | bionic-updates | On that upgrade these files would vanish. I've taken a Bionic system, downgraded to 2.3.1-2.1ubuntu4 and from there upgraded the package. The files went away as one would expect: root@b:~# ll /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libseccomp.so* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Mar 1 2018 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libseccomp.so.2 -> libseccomp.so.2.3.1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 280776 Mar 1 2018 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libseccomp.so.2.3.1 root@b:~# apt install libseccomp2 Reading package lists...

Furthermore from your system it might be interesting to get /var/log/dpkg.log* attached here. Not sure one can find something in there, but we could track exactly what happened to your libseccomp2 in the past - maybe that reconstruction helps to find how/why these files got left on your disk. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1876486 Title: Kernel panic booting after 18.04 to 20.04 upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libseccomp/+bug/1876486/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
