Public bug reported:

I upgraded my old crappy box to 19.10 beta from 19.04, things did not go
well the upgrade tool eoan it did not run well I could not get many of
the buttons to work by clicking I had to use tab and enter, then the
thing that's supposed stop it locking fail while I was asleep; woke up
it was locked, and when I tried to unlock it I just got a blank screen.

I had to ssh in to it find out what was going on I found it was stuck I
gave it an hour to come out of it, it didn't, so I killed the processes
with sudo kill -1 pid-of-the-python-program pid-of-the-shell-script then
I rebooted it by sudo shutdown, and ssh in again and it was still sick
and half done, so I called sudo apt upgrade, which didn't work but gave
me the dpkg (sudo dpkg --configure -a) command to use, I ran that and it
cleaned it up a lot, and I was able to login to gnome-shell it was still
on version 3.32.2 and was a little messed up but worked, I tried the
update-manager -d &, that gave me a partial upgrade program which
failed, in the end, I fixed it with sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and
running the normal update-manager program till every thing was up to
date, now it's fine but it took much drama to do it
