FYI, version 0.11-4ubuntu2.5 was recently released. If you are still experiencing this issue, the following steps will correct it:
1. Remove the postinst file from the affected package (version 0.11-4ubuntu2.1): sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/libjson-c2\:amd64.postinst 2. Re-run the package configure step to correct its half-installed status: sudo dpkg --configure -a 3. Update the package list from the repository: sudo apt update 4. Upgrade the affected package to the latest version: sudo apt install libjson-c2 5. Reboot to activate the new package: sudo reboot Any user running a version of the libjson-c2 package not equal to 0.11-4ubuntu2.1 will not have to go through these steps and updating the package to the new version will be done the normal way; either through unattended-updates or manual apt upgrade. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1878723 Title: Kernel panic when used with upstart after 0.11-4ubuntu2.1 update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/json-c/+bug/1878723/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
