Public bug reported: Looking at the source code of ubuntu-release-upgrader it looks like an environment variable, RELEASE_UPGRADE_IN_PROGRESS, is set when an upgrade is being performed. However, it would be better if there was an indication that other programs, e.g. apport, could use to tell whether or not a release upgrade was in progress.
This came up as we saw some crash reports in the error tracker that didn't make sense and a possible explanation is that a release upgrade was in progress. ** Affects: apport (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: rls-ii-incoming -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1939616 Title: u-r-u should leave a breadcrumb indicating a dist-upgrade is in progress To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1939616/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
