Public bug reported: When activating unattended-upgrades, the job (ps aux) "/usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/unattended-upgrade --download-only" will not ever finish. User cant upgrade, since the process is holding a lock on "/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend".
"python3 -v /usr/bin/unattended-upgrade --download-only -v" never finishes, while using apt=2.4.12 on VERSION="22.04.4 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)". It stops at: ``` ... Initial blacklist: Initial whitelist (not strict): # /usr/lib/python3.10/__pycache__/_strptime.cpython-310.pyc matches /usr/lib/python3.10/_strptime.py # code object from '/usr/lib/python3.10/__pycache__/_strptime.cpython-310.pyc' import '_strptime' # <_frozen_importlib_external.SourceFileLoader object at 0x7f3e527bfd60> ``` And does not ever finish. It works again with downgrading to: "apt install apt=2.4.5": (2.4.8 also works, so the issue seems to be included after that). ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apt unattended-upgrade unattended-upgrades -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2071328 Title: unattended-upgrade script brakes with apt=2.4.12 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/2071328/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
