Hi list,
I am using testing with KDE (but I suppose the desktop environnent does
not matter). I had a LOT of updates to apply today, so I used KDE
Discover (Gnome Software equivalent for KDE) to apply those in offline
mode, ie updates are dowloaded and then computer reboots in a special
mode just to update packages, and reboot normally when finished.
However, update stopped before all packages where updated and computer
rebooted with packages in a broken state.
When I look journalctl, I see beginning of the update process:
17:44:41 pk-offline-update[742]: sent mode to plymouth 'updates'
And exactly ten minutes later it stops brutally:
17:54:40 systemd[1]: packagekit-offline-update.service: Main process
exited, code=killed, status=15/TERM
17:54:40 systemd[1]: packagekit-offline-update.service: Failed with
result 'signal'.
I suppose this maximum time comes somewhere from a systemd configuration
or systemd unit, but could not find where. Any idea? Also, do you think
I should report this issue? Against which package?
Hi Yvan,
I don't know what the problem is. Possible workarounds could be to try
to upgrade the system from console:
- option #1
# apt update
# apt upgrade
- option #2
# aptitude update
# aptitude upgrade
Kind regards
