I had this same problem in Gutsy. Here's my solution: 1. Open Synaptic
2. Highlight ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-minimal 3. In the menu, select Package>Lock version 4. Click Mark all Upgrades and Apply (let the upgrade complete) 5. Highlight ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-minimal once more 6. Unselect Lock version. (to make sure everything's in working order after this, you can run "sudo apt-get check") -- Installation of "ubuntu-desktop" fails and prevents dist-upgrade (both to dapper and to edgy) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/40552 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
