Well I have successfully updated to Hardy on sparc architecture. Had a
few issues that were somewhat easily solvable. First, I could not get a
virgin install of Gutsy to install (I figured out why later). So I
installed a virgin install of Feisty. I then upgraded to Gutsy at which
time I could
I have a Sun Ultra E2 that I can use as a test system. I will install
Gutsy, update it, setup a few services and then attempt to upgrade it to
Hardy and see how it goes. I will report my findings here once
completed.

That sounds exactly what my server did. I really wish sparc was still
mainstream supported. I can see why you would do away with ppc, but a
lot of old sun sparc gear is still very useful ;) Guess I will wait
until the EOL day and upgrade then and see what happens.

Hi Martin,
I removed xvnc-viewer, which triggered the removal of the ubuntu-desktop
package. After that the upgrade was able to proceed BUT the server
didn't come up after reboot - it freezes at "booting linux..." - looking
around seems to be a problem with the swap partition - anyway that is a

I looked into ths today and it turns out the bug is really that pyhton-
apt in hardy-updates calls apt_pkg.init() at the wrong point. So both a
new python-apt and a rebuild of update-manager will be required.

Heurm - I tried the various workarounds listed above but none of them
did the trick on my dapper sparc. Also I can't upgrade my gutsy sparc to
hardy either -- I'll post logs for the gutsy upgrade to this ticket when
I get a chance.
