upgrading to xubuntu 24.04, another update

ceciline02@lemmy.ml to Linux@lemmy.ml – 11 points –

my 23.10 now boots to single user mode (the tty1 log in page), After logging in with username and password (not as root, but regular me) I get this message:

/etc/update-motd.d/95 updates available 7: /usr/share/update-notifier/notify-updates-outdated: not found

run-parts: /etc/update-motd.d/95 updates available exited with return code 127

what's the best way to proceed now?

it seems there is no -a option for dpkg-reconfigure:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a returns unknown option -a

if I delete -a it asks for a package to reconfigure

Maybe try command listed here

https://askubuntu.com/questions/775328/is-dpkg-reconfigure-all-still-available-in-16-04

after trying suggested command

sudo dpkg --configure -a

I get:

error processing package install-info (--configure): installed install-info package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 127, errors were encountered while processing install-info

hmm...... I would skip dpkg command in this case.
