A held package is a package that is marked as DO NOT TOUCH (no upgrade).
To list held packages, you can use:

   apt-mark showhold

or read: https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/apt-get-hold-back-packages-command/

That may not be the issue there, it could be a dependancy issue, especially if
you have installed additional installation sources.

Usually apt-get install -f (under root) gives an idea or even a solution.
Only type ENTER after having understood what it is going to do.

PS: not using Ubuntu, but Debian, but Ubuntu is Debian-based.

Sorry, wrong list!
My nbewsreader was set to OpenVPN but I wanted to post into Ubuntu-users.

[Openvpn-users] Getting: 2 updates could not be installed automatically

2022-03-08 Thread Bo Berglund 
(Ubuntu 20.04.3)
I did an apt update followed by apt full-upgrade and then rebooted.

This greets me when I log in:

2 updates could not be installed automatically. For more details,
see /var/log/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrades.log

And the end (20 lines) of that log holds this:

What am I supposed to do to fix this?
It says that I have held broken packages but I have no idea on what that even
means or how one can "hold" something in a computer

A new reboot did not solve this.
