Stories similar to Apt-get upgrade problem.

I was using UCK to customize an Ubuntu 11.10 image, and ran a dist-upgrade on it (from the console) to try to update all of the packages on it. The upgrade worked successfully for all but two packages, so I tried again and got the same error message. This is what happened:

# sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...

hello,

I'm trying to upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 but nothing happens. the GUI "update manager" tells me that I might upgrade to 12.04 but when I click on the button nothing happens.

From shell this is what I see:

I want to upgrade 10.04 to 11.10 because the 11.10 iso didn't install for me. I've tried: Code: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ubuntu-minimal And got: Code: Reading package list... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

I made a mistake.

I tried to upgrade my Ubuntu from 10.04 LTS. Then, I upgraded to 10.10.

It's really funny, then, the system tells me this is an unsupported version, and I cannot upgrade to another unsupported version target. :confused:

So, I think this is an issue for Ubuntu community. 10.04 is a LTS version, which should provide a way for the user to upgrade to 12.04 directly.

[lubuntu] update or upgrade? 11 weeks 6 days ago

So I was on the computer today when it said not all updates where installed and I clicked on partial upgrade and then it popped up as distribution upgrade but what it shows me looks just like just a steam and a kernel upgrade or is it a legit distribution upgrade.

I don't want to upgrade to 13.04 until it's release date

So I finally checked to see if I could upgrade to 12.04.1 through the update manager and it's there saying I can upgrade. I already upgraded from 8.04 to 10.04 so I'm thinking about going to 12.04. This is, my PC is pretty old. It has about 600MB or RAM so would that be enough?

I had a PC that had about 2GB of RAM, but it died. Funny how newer PC's seem to crap out more than the old ones.

Hello! I'm trying to upgrade the packages that is showing as upgradable, but I keep getting an error.

Code: root@ubuntu:~# apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...

I recently upgraded from lucid to pangolin (LTS) and by default lots of programs (like latex which were installed from repository by me earlier) were automatically upgraded. This resulted in a time-consuming procedure. Also the resulting desktop is not what I like (this uses unity and has fixed position of launcher, to the left of terminal which is a distraction for user like me).
