I managed to perform the upgrade checking the logs (/var/log/dist- upgrade/apt.log) and solving the issues with "Broken" packages. However, it would be much better to have this step included into the upgrade asking a) whether to remove the packages that prevent the upgrade (and listing the packages) or b) skip the upgrade to manually solve the issue. Moreover, after the upgrade I ended up with broken apt-get (it required libc, which required gcc-base) and had to manually download the libraries and install them via dpkg. As it found, I was not the first who faced this issue, but it can be and should be considered during the upgrade process. Thanks for your time and for the free Linux OS, hope this feedback helps to improve the reliability of the installation process. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1622329 Title: Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS upgrade to 16 fails via Software Updater To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1622329/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
