[Bug 1663699] Re: Unintended-upgrade in progress during shutdown

[s. c.]

** Description changed:

- i ceased to get shutdowns and restarts on mint cinnamon serena 18.1, so i changed from the preferred nvidia driver to the nouveau open source driver. since i did that my os is often hanging indefinitely. this seems to be prevalent mostly with restarts, but i also get it intermittently with shutdowns.

  i run an old intel board (dell xps 410-64 bit from 2007).
  i went through all the 4.4 series kernels listed in the terminal. i finally tried the newest kernel:4.9.0-040900-generic  , but the bug is still there.
  
  can anyone give me instructions as to how to be rid of "Unintended-upgrade in progress during shutdown, sleeping for 5s" so my restarts and shutdowns will not hang?
  if you need something else, please give a terminal command that will work.
  
  cinnamon version: 3.2.7
