[Bug 223226] Re: Upgrade from kubuntu Dapper requires manual intervention and kdm shutdown

[kko]

To be clear:

For me, the issue with having to *shutdown* kdm *prior* to doing the
upgrade is separate from the issue of configuring 'libpam0g'. I don't
think I even had the dialog about libpam0g.

What I did have, however, was that the dist-upgrade started, downloaded
the package lists and calculated required changes, and at this point
(before starting the actual upgrade), asked me stop kdm and try again.

So I cancelled out, logged out of X and stopped kdm, and started the
dist-upgrade process again.

This time around it seemed to download (again) the same things, and
calculate the required changes (again). But it managed to continue
alright.

In sum:

In retrospect I cannot be sure if my issue with kdm is the same as the
original submitter's issue with kdm. I assume yes, because the
requirement to shutdown kdm was *unconditional* (as per the OP's "has to
be manually shut down before it can proceed"), no options were given.

If this wasn't the case also for the OP, this may be a different issue.
