Package: gnome-shell Version: 43.9-0+deb12u2 Severity: serious [This bug is probably misfiled, I have no idea which GNOME component is responsible for the actual behaviour so this is a guess based on the fact that I interact with the UI to trigger it.]
When I select "Power off" from the power menu at the top right of the screen if there any pending package updates then instead of shutting down GNOME will reboot into a single user mode, apply the pending package updates and then shut down. I have never noticed any visible indication that this will happen rather than an immediate shutdown. On my system when there is a kernel package update this renders the system unbootable, my /boot partition does not have enough space to store two copies of the initramfs so installation of the new kernel package is left half finished with no modules available. This in turn causes boot failures since the display driver is the nVidia module and the nouveau driver which gets loaded instead simply does not work on this hardware. I can imagine this may also be an issue in cases where the user needs to power the system off urgently, for example due to running out of battery, and since I use an encrypted rootfs I am also routinely suprised to find that the system I thought I had turned off has been sitting at the decrypt filesystem prompt for an extended period. I would expect some indication that upgrades are to happen, and for there to be some way to skip the update and just do a normal shutdown instead. Windows has a model where when updates are pending some additional shutdown and reboot options are provided called "Update and X". -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.6 APT prefers
