* Use noawait trigger (LP: #1769954) -- Julian Andres Klode <juli...@ubuntu.com> Tue, 05 Jun 2018 11:43:53 -0700 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to desktop-file-utils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769954 Title: package desktop-file-utils 0.23-1ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: dependency problems - leaving triggers unprocessed Status in desktop-file-utils package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in desktop-file-utils source package in Xenial: Fix Released Status in desktop-file-utils source package in Artful: Fix Released Status in desktop-file-utils source package in Bionic: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] dist-upgrade from artful to bionic fails with attached tarball [Test case] artful: 1. Install new desktop-file-utils 2. check that dist-upgrade works bionic: 1. Download new deb 2. Run apt-get dist-upgrade path/to/deb in xenial to trigger upgrade with that deb being upgraded too. [Regression potential] Packages installing desktop files to /usr/share/applications won't get put in triggers-awaited state due to d-f-u. [Other info] Just fixing bionic makes an apt dist-upgrade work (not sure about do-release-upgrade); but it might not work in other circumstances I guess, so it might make sense to upload the fix to older releases. We can only verify artful and bionic, though, so xenial would have to go in unchecked. The trigger causes the desktop database to be updated, as such it is possible to use noawait here, as there's no reason for packages shipping .desktop files to be not configured just because the database has not been updated yet. The same change has been made in Debian in 0.23-2. [Original bug report] run `sudo do-release-upgrade` on a relativity new 16.04 EC2 instance.
