## 缘起
目前如式机上使用的ubuntu系统是很多年前装的系统，12.04。很多软件无法安装，如wine、understand，第三方提供的调试库有不支持12.04（编译不了）。所以决定升级系统
## 目标
把ubuntu12.04升级到16.04（台式机上的ubuntu与笔记本上的版本一致）
升级操作
```
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo do-release-upgrade
```
升级到14.04时，需要重新设置一下ubuntu 的“源”
然后再执行同样的操作。
## 所遇到的问题
ubuntu12.04无法直接升级到16.04，只能先升级到14.04，然后再升级到16.04。升级到14.04时正常，但从14.04升级到16.04时，重启一直卡在‘ubuntu’ 开机界面，下面的循环点一直在动，但就是进入不了系统。</br>
1. 试着按CTRL+ALT+F1进入控制台模式，发现按组合键无效。但此时按F1键会进入控制台登录模式，但此时的键盘录入有问题。无法正确进入控制台命令行模式。
2. 上述方法未能进入控制台模式，重启ubuntu，一直按SHIFT键，会弹出选项，选择进入“恢复模式”。进入恢复模式时，再按CTRL+ALT+F1，此时键盘是有效的。
3. 进入控制台模式时，本来想执行以下命令的,发现apt-get 出错。
```
sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop
sudo reboot
```
结果提示libstdc++.so.6 出错，类似如下信息
*not defined in file libstdc++.so.6*
4. 对于上述错误解决方法
```
wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gcc-5/libstdc++6_5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.10_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libstdc++6_5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.10_amd64.deb
# I also found this helpful
sudo apt-get -f install
```
**注意**：这里的 *16.04.10_amd64.deb* ***10***会随着版本变化而变化。目前最新的版本是**12**所以写的应该是**16.04.12_amd64.deb**
5. 4的问题解决后，重新执行3的步骤。重启，能正常进入ubuntu界面。
f.进入ubuntu界面后发现终端打不开，报错信息如下
```
liu@ubuntu:~$ gnome-terminal
(process:2286): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.

liu@ubuntu:~$
```
6. 为了解决终端不能打开的问题，进行了一些尝试。
```
sudo apt install dconf-cli
dconf reset -f /org/gnome/terminal
sudo apt-get remove gnome-terminal
sudo apt-get install gnome-terminal
sudo locale-gen --purge
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
reboot
```
执行上述操作的显示
```

```
重装后还是出错。查看python版本，看是否是python版本引起的。
重新安装python3的版本
```
sudo apt-get --reinstall install python3-minimal
```
查看：
```
liu@ubuntu:~$ ls -larth `which python`*

```
当前设置的版本为python2.7 ,指定python的版本为3.5
```
sudo update-alternatives --config python
```
发现没有关于python3.5的选项，于是把python3.5增加进选项中，默认设置使用py3.5的版本(再执行一下 --config python 选择3)
```
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3.5 3
```
重启，发现设置默认python后还是不行，且会带来其它的问题。后面又设置回去。
h.最后在**/etc/default/locale**设置
```
LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
```
系统的gnome-terminal 终端能运行起来了，但是terminator 却又不能打开。好在terminator 终端一般不怎么用。暂时不管它。
