To start, I know enough to probably be dangerous so bare with me.
My home Ubuntu server seems to be a little flaky ever since running the ‘jammy’ upgrade of Ubuntu. I just tried a terminal apt update and upgrade and it seems to not complete. I never saw this response before. Any feedback is appreciated.
Here is my terminal output:
61 packages can be upgraded. Run ‘apt list --upgradable’ to see them.
ron@server:~$ sudo apt upgrade

First have you rebooted this system recently?
Sometimes system updates require restarts to complete certain package update, annoying yes, but this may just be holding all new updates back too.
Try the reboot and then try to update and go from there.
I rebooted and then I ran sudo apt-get install <packagename(s)> and more packages loaded. I then did it again with what was left and it loaded more. After running this about 4 times all packages loaded. Everything seems as it should now but I am still at a loss as to why.

Maybe some system packages that required restart. Ubuntu used to tell you is a system restart was required.
