Small warning: Ubuntu's "do you want to upgrade" popup window defaults to "yes". Had to find that out the hard way when a user hit Enter the wrong moment and was suddenly sitting in front of a bricked system.
- bad_user 11y agoUsually you press Enter to accept things and ESC to cancel. Also, it first downloads all packages before upgrading, so you should've had time to cancel it.
- amelius 11y agoIs upgrade failing in general or in this specific case only?
- creshal 11y agoI've no idea. `apt install -f` fixed everything and I didn't bother probing into it further. (We only have Ubuntu on two machines, everything else is Arch or Debian.)
- bsharitt 11y agoI had a similar experience upgrading my laptop(though I initiated the upgrade on purpose). Just crapped out, but an apt install -f followed by a dist-upgrade fixed it all and it seems to have worked.
- rawfan 11y agoCrashed for me, too.
