Over the last few months I've encountered this unusual problem when trying to run updates.
I'll leave it for 24 hours, come back and it'll be looping the exact same lines, over and over again..
I'll restart the device and come back to it and where some updates then complete with no error, every other update will result in the above.
I have no idea on where to even begin fixing this. Any ideas? Thanks!
Have you added any 3rd party source line to your source list?
Yes, is that the whole list? The only 3rd party I see is VPN (debian).
That's the whole list - window maximised to ensure there was nothing left to scroll
Just checked the picture again, it says it configuring the kernel 6.5.0-45. I have never seen a loop in the process of the kernel or heard about it. This need some research.
For what it's worth - I think I may have accidentally found the root of the problem.
Recently updated to the latest version of Zorin, the software updater bumped into the same problem but this time it pointed to the installation I had of VirtualBox.
Removed that package completely and have ran the software updater a fair bit since then and so far... So good...?
Looks like a recurrence of something from a few years back.
Does it happen if you update via the Terminal?
