For those interested to get past this stuck state to continue 11.10 installation can do following:
1. Edit the file /etc/init.d/cups, and add "exit 0" right in the beginning as first statement. This will bypass the failures in starting cups. 2. Find out PID of current running process of this script with "ps ax | grep init.d" and kill it with "kill -9 <PID>". After this, installation will continue. 3. Revert back step 1 once installation is done, and wait for cups related updates to arrive :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/854490 Title: update from natty to oneiric hangs on libpam0g upgrade and cups reload To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/854490/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
