Write another bug report? You are upgrading in a virtual machine. Does the virtual process have direct access to the hardware? If blkid is looking for real disk ids and doesn't have access to them, it is probably going to hang. In top it should look like D I think, uninterruptible sleep. It is impossible to kill such tasks. Now this could be a bug in blkid, if it is supposed to be able to get block ids while running in virtual machines. But that seems like a pretty big if to me. _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
