Bug#920624: tzdata: raspberry pi 1 hangs during upgrade of tzdata to 2018i-0+deb8u1
Package: tzdata
Version: 2018i-0+deb8u1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When trying to update the system with apt-get update,
the newer version of tzdata was found and during the installation
the system hanged (it did not respond to any keys sent, it didn't respond to ping,
the only option was a reboot). This was on raspberry pi 1 beta (2011.12 model).
The last output of the update command was:
Fetched 19.2 MB in 16s (1141 kB/s)
Reading changelogs... Done
Preconfiguring packages ...
(Reading database ... 104820 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack .../tzdata_2018i-0+deb8u1_all.deb ...
Unpacking tzdata (2018i-0+deb8u1) over (2018e-0+deb8u1) ...
This was attempted several times, always resulting in system hanging.
One of the attempts was left over night, but in the morning the
system was still unresponsive, so it was not just a slow process.
Now, after changing the hardware to raspberry pi 3 the update
was successful. I've just put the SD card into anothe pi and
did the update.
