Public bug reported:
Running a standard "apt dist-upgrade" in U-MATE 20.10 via GUI console &
part way through suddenly the screen flashes black and a brief TTY-like
dmesg data shows "[Failed] and a bunch of data before going black again
. . . . Seems like the GUI was crashed . . . . After a minute the
mouse cursor came back and then the log-in window.
I logged in and saw the "error" applet up on the toolbar . . . saying
"possibly unmet dependencies" . . . launched the console again and it
said, "dpkg was interrupted, run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'" . . . so I
ran that, and a few errors on "libreoffice" showed up . . . it was
running through the items again . . . and then the same crash of the GUI
happened again . . . ???
Haven't seen anything quite like this in some 13 years of messing with
linux . . . GUI crashes while running an apt update?????
