[Bug 1298281] Re: prompt to restart services in text mode during an upgrade in graphic mode

[Brian Murray]

It looks like gtk has ended up in a broken state given the error
messages after the attempting to open the dialog:

debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Gnome^M
debconf: (Unable to load Gtk -- is libgtk2-perl installed?)^M
debconf: falling back to frontend: Dialog^M

Title:
  prompt to restart services in text mode during an upgrade in graphic
  mode

Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Fresh install of Precise Desktop + updates upgraded to Trusty with
  "update-manager -d"

  During upgrade the console window opens with a prompt from debconf to
  restart services that depends on libc6 (see screenshot)

  1. It must be a graphical prompt
  2. There should be no prompt
