Yes, during the upgrade procedure I had to kill the localdef processes a few (3 or 4) times.
The upgrade tool displayed dialog boxes telling me that some packages could not be installed due to (broken?) dependencies. After clicking through all the dialogs I rebooted the machine. The computer hung at the 'Ubuntu' screen; terminals were unresponsive/unavailable at this time. I then forced the power off and rebooted, this time successfully. After getting back to a terminal window, I performed another:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
apt said there were no new packages to install but some that needed configuring (my memory is a little fuzzy here). Then localdef did its thing rebuilding 4 or 5 or so locales. Apt completed successfully.

Now the installation appears to be working fine.
Thanks,
