*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 85979 *** Fresh install of Feisty herd 5 X86_64 Adept updater tells me there are 115 updates, two packages to remove. After downloading, window shows a progress bar labelled 'preparing...' at 0%. A second window opens labelled 'Debconf on rtg-laptop' with the message 'Incorrect nice value; Please enter an integer between -20 and 19', but no input box. 'Next' does nothing. 'Cancel' closes the window and the updater appears to continue. At 5% 'Preparing upgrade of x11-common...', I get the same message window again. This time, clicking 'cancel' causes the following message window to appear in the center of the adept updater window:
"Could not commit changes - Adept Updater. There was an error committing changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages" This was followed almost immediately by the appearance of a third 'incorrect nice value message window. I close this window, then click OK in the 'could not commit changes' dialog. The adept updater window shows 'Update complete', and offers me only a 'Quit' option. Why don't I have a warm fuzzy about this message??? I click 'quit' and the window closes. I open a Konsole window, and enter 'ps aux | grep adept', and am presented with three PIDs: adept-notifier, kio-file, and kio-http, all in status S. I issue 'sudo apt-get upgrade' as I did on herd 4, and I am presented with 77 to upgrade, and 35 not fully installed or removed. The upgrade proceeds without further prompting. A second upgrade, followed by a dist-upgrade, present no further packages to be upgraded or installed. -- dpkg: invalid nice value https://launchpad.net/bugs/88697 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
