[Bug 1023732] Re: Ubuntu upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 fail

2012-07-12 Thread Manfred Hampl
This might be a duplicate of bug #721306

If the package xserver-xorg-video-nouveau is installed, in several cases
the 10.04 to 10.10 upgrade fails with the error message

Could not determine the upgrade
An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade:
E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by 
held packages.
This can be caused by:
* Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu

Several persons have reported that after removal of that package the
upgrade was successful.

Try this workaround: Open a terminal and enter the command:

sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (which most probably will
also remove xserver-xorg-video-all)

and then try the upgrade again.

++

If xserver-xorg-video-nouveau blocks the upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, it
might as well block the LTS upgrade 10.04 to 12.04 with the consequence,
that not (two years later) there might be a higher number of such bug
reports again!

I try
sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau

It removed both xserver-xorg-video-all and xserver-xorg-video-
nouveau

but when I trie to update, I still got the same error message:

Some o the error messages are:An unresolvable problem occurred while 
calculating the upgrade:
E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by 
held packages.

 This can be caused by:
 * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
 * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
 * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
