Title:
unattended-upgrades crashes with: apt_pkg.Error: E:Error,
pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by
held packages
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
It seems pkgProblemResolver is hitting an internal bug quite
frequently with latest u-u:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 1927, in <module>
sys.exit(main(options))
File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 1678, in main
pkg.mark_upgrade(from_user=not pkg.is_auto_installed)
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt/package.py", line 1483, in
mark_upgrade
self.mark_install(from_user=from_user)
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt/package.py", line 1475, in
mark_install
fixer.resolve(True)
apt_pkg.Error: E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this
may be caused by held packages.
I believe this should be fixed in apt rather than just catching it in
u-u.
