Hi, I am sorry I do not remember what exactly I was doing that time (Date: Sun Jul 31 22:18:01 2016), but I can recollect a bit. I had got new Intel NUX for myself on 30th July and I started setting up Ubuntu on it. After successful installation of Ubuntu 16.04, I started installing few other software beginning with Chrome browser and I believe I got stuck here itself while installing Chrome browser. But later on I moved ahead I don't know what I did but some how this problem was gone and further I never faced it.
Kind regards, muqsith On Mon, Aug 1, 2016 at 2:58 AM, Steve Langasek <steve.langa...@canonical.com > wrote: > The attached dpkg history log only shows that you were upgrading base- > files from version 9.4ubuntu to version 9.4ubuntu4.2.
