Thanks to Daniel's support I made the following progress: - removed an old entry from /etc/apt/preferences pinning edgy to 100
Daniel has come to the conclusion this does not even constitute a bug in update-manager but that it is another bug in uim which just brings update-manager to a halt. He told me in IRC that bug has been fixed in uim 1:1.2.1-4 I will attach some output that I used when communicating with Daniel to troubleshoot the situation. Maybe this will be useful. ** Attachment added: "Current status after removing erroneous pin line" http://librarian.launchpad.net/5066483/061114_current_state.txt -- update-manager freezes mid-term in xubuntu upgrade to edgy https://launchpad.net/bugs/71542 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
