apt upgrade stops with "foomatic-filters (3.0.0-20031207-1)"
I did an update and dist-upgrade today (8Jan04) and all went well (as I expected it to) until I got to "foomatic-filters (3.0.0-20031207-1)".
----Xterm snip----
After unpacking 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Setting up foomatic-filters (3.0.0-20031207-1) ...
Configuration file `/etc/foomatic/filter.conf'
==> File on system created by you or by a script.
==> File also in package provided by package maintainer.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : start a new shell to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
*** filter.conf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ?y
Here is where the system just "hangs out" for lack of a better descriptor. The terminal is okay but the script is just sitting here. Several hours have passed and it's still just sitting there--no errors--just sitting there doing nothing at all! I've killed it several times and restarted, but it always does the same thing.
How do I get this script to finish?
Thank you.
Wishing you well.
