I can confirm, experiencing the same. So from what I understand is that apt executes
if /usr/bin/test -w /var/cache/app-info -a -e /usr/bin/appstreamcli; then appstreamcli refresh-cache > /dev/null; fi which fails. It checks whether the two files /var/cache/app-info and /usr/bin/appstreamcli both exist and if so it attempts to run appstreamcli. appstreamcli handles AppStream metadata and the AppStream index. /var/cache/app-info does not exist on my system. Not sure if it is supposed to be there all the time or just during the uggrade process. Leaving my VM in the current condition so I can gather more information if needed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to appstream in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1794213 Title: Crash on Upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04 Network Not Available To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream/+bug/1794213/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
