@cekkent: Did you reboot between the "dpkg --unpack..." and "sudo apt install -f" steps?
That reboot is incredibly important since it switches out the init process from the faulty one in 2.1 to the one in the 2.2 package. The "apt install -f" is intended to run the pre/post install scripts for the package to get it out if the half-installed state. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1878723 Title: Kernel panic when used with upstart after 0.11-4ubuntu2.1 update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/json-c/+bug/1878723/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
