Excuse me if it is inappropriate to say this here, but a seemingly related series of breaking changes still persists. First, X lost all input devices. Then, there was a hang on boot. The Plymouth logo stopped spinning and the system just croaked; the login screen never appeared. The latest breaking change occurred while upgrading *one* package only (base-files) to 6.4ubuntu2. Supposedly that was expressly intended to fix other devastating bugs. After that, I gave up and reverted to a stable snapshot.
I'm all for stealing from Debian Unstable, but when this is done in a piecemeal and uncoordinated manner, and Oneiric is orders of magnitude more unstable than Sid, something is wrong. Really, this is getting to be too much. I'm not talking about an ugly screen or a few missing icons. We are approaching total unusability. More often than not, dpkg receives a segfault during routine upgrades. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/807974 Title: debootstrap fails to install libc6 installing oneiric from natty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/base-files/+bug/807974/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
