Update: just removing the python3 package didn't work for me . Have to remove the other obsolete packages using "sudo apt-get -y autoremove "Package name here without quotes" .
how I got the obselete package list? did this: $ cat /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log | grep Obsolete >> /home/" my A/c user-name without quotes" /desktop>obseletepkgs.txt Then did a update again (sudo apt-get -y update), then ran the dist-upgrade from the update GUI tool. (for some reason the upgrade didn't start from the command "sudo do-release upgrade" in-spite of my multiple tries , even after reboot/restart. A window then popped up asking me if I wanted to continue with the upgrade to 14.04 now or later and gave me a time period it would take to update over my net connection and I clicked start ...its right now running on my laptop (typing this from my desktop) . will update result - if the upgrade is successful or not. FYI & necessary action/updation in the relevant areas by the Proper expert(s). forgive me for my mistakes if any - i'm a newbie to linux and would like to get all the help i can get. thxs all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1324196 Title: upgrade from 12.04 or 13.10 to 14.04 not possible due to python3 from blender PPA To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1324196/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
