Hello udippel, or anyone else affected, Accepted ubuntu-release-upgrader into groovy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source /ubuntu-release-upgrader/1:20.10.16 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- groovy to verification-done-groovy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-groovy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu Groovy) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags removed: verification-done-groovy ** Tags added: verification-needed-groovy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1898026 Title: interruption of dist-upgrade can leave you next release in sources.list Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in apt source package in Bionic: New Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Bionic: New Status in apt source package in Focal: New Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in apt source package in Groovy: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Groovy: Fix Committed Status in apt source package in Hirsute: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Hirsute: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] Calling update() or installing packages from apt clients resets their SIGINT and SIGQUIT handlers to SIG_DFL, overriding any signal handlers they might have set for them. In case of ubuntu-release-upgrader, this results in the release upgrader being unable to handle interrupts after it did the initial update - the default libc handler will run and the program exits. [Test plan] [[apt]] As a standalone test for apt, we can test the following script: import apt import time apt.Cache().update() print("WAITING") try: time.sleep(10000) except BaseException as e: print("Seen", repr(e)) print("END") Pressing Ctrl+C while WAITING is printed should print Seen KeyboardInterrupt, and importantly, also the END line. [[ubuntu-release-upgrader]] 1) On an Ubuntu 18.04 system run do-release-upgrade in a terminal. 2) At the "Do you want to start the upgrade?" question say Y. 3) When you see the "Lock screen disabled" message you will also see "Inhibiting until Ctrl+C is pressed". 4) Press "Ctrl+C" Your /etc/apt/sources.list file will now have focal in it instead of bionic although the upgrade has quit. With the version of ubuntu- release-upgrader in -proposed you will not see the "Ctrl+C" message. For your sources.list file to be restored you'll need the version of apt from bionic-proposed installed before starting the upgrade. [Where problems could occur] apt: This specific change removes the two lines that SIG_DFL the signal handlers after running scripts. AFAWCT those lines are unnecessary - the code that calls it temporarily sets the handlers to SIG_IGN but restores previous handlers at the end; it was wrongly refactored decades ago. A regression could occur in that those signals will now continue to be ignored if we missed a spot. ubuntu-release-upgrader: The change is wrapping a bunch of code in a try: except: block so if the indentation was off the pyflakes / pycodestyle tests would fail but autopkgtest will catch that. [Original bug report] As a long-time-user of ?ubuntu, with apt-get as tool of choice for updates/upgrades I wrote a daily script for updates, with 'dist-upgrade'. In all earlier years, it wouldn't actually do an upgrade of a ?ubuntu version; just all packages including new ones. Version updates had to be initiated manually, and I was always asked if I really wanted the new ?ubuntu version. Sounds appropriate. Last night when it (dist-upgrade), it just gave me 20.04. No questions asked. I for one consider this kind of intrusive, though. It *might* have to make with me trying 'sudo do-release-upgrade -m desktop' a number of times earlier; just to *check* if the upgrade was on offer; but this is only a guess. In *any* case, a pop-up asking "Are you sure? Are you connected through an adequate pipe? Are you sitting with full batteries; better a power supply?" would be convenient; since I am using my PC for urgent duties, and didn't want to fiddle with unexpected upgrade bugs.
