Thread: Package upgrade issues

-

i installed ubuntu 12.04 on desktop machine , encountered problems. if run update after installing livecd image, system crashes in many ways.

encountered sudo stopped working, pipe warnings , entire xorg breaks. without updates os runs fine.

create bug report on launchpad, in order need know packages report.

these packages set updated.
code:
apport  apport-gtk  dmsetup  gdb  iagno  libdevmapper-event1.02.1  libdevmapper1.02.1  liblvm2app2.2  liborbit2  libsmbclient  lightsoff  mahjongg  openssl  python-apport  python-problem-report  quadrapassel  samba-common-bin  software-center  swell-foop  update-manager  update-manager-core  xserver-xorg-core  xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
the first error after reboot, message "could not write bytes broken pipes"

tries start lightdm crashes , ends in shell. running 'startx' provides black screen.

'sudo' command breaks forcing 1 boot livecd in order mess things. when using sudo message "sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting". have tried every work-around find, fine still not work.

don't think ubuntu has pushed multiple broken packages. think these issues has 1 package in common. need know of above packages creates issues both xorg , sudo in order create bug report on it.

have tried both 32bit , 64bit os, both provide same issues.

try installing them 1 @ time , see one(s) give hassles.
