The big issue here is not that the three way merge wasn't successful. It's that the installer fails to continue cleanly after the failure. it claims a failure and looks like it's trying to clean up when really it's sitting there with a blank terminal screen. I had to ctrl-c in the terminal and then it continued on (also unsuccessfully, but then it worked when I tried again).
The recovery from failure should be more graceful. -- Linux package setup failed during upgrade when "3 way merge" selected for menu.lst https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
