Update Manager issue
I am using Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx and I suddenly have an issue with Update Manager that I have been unable to resolve on my own. Package Manager and apt-get are not reporting any issues.
The error message is: Could not calculate the upgrade An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message: 'E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.' I could use some help in how to report or resolve it. thanks, |
From what I've seen this is caused by held packages when doing the upgrade, so did you do it? The upgrade.
Would be nice to see your /etc/apt/sources.list. |
Can you tell me how to I find and resolve the held Packages.
I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 about 4 months ago and it has been working fine The sources list file follows: ## N.B. software from this repository may not have been tested as ## extensively as that contained in the main release, although it includes ## newer versions of some applications which may provide useful features. ## Also, please note that software in backports WILL NOT receive any review ## or updates from the Ubuntu security team. ## Uncomment the following two lines to add software from Canonical's ## 'partner' repository.

See what's in /var/log/dist-upgrade/. What packages were being held back. Then remove them with Synaptic, but make a note of those packages, so you can reinstall them.
