Stephane Charette's 2016-07-25 comment #12 helped me. I am attempting to upgrade 14.04.5 to 16.04.x.
Unlike others, I did not have a 'postgis' package installed. However, I do have postgresql-plperl-9.3 installed and, after removing this package, the upgrade proceeded normally. # dpkg --get-selections | grep -i postg postgresql install postgresql-9.3 install postgresql-client-9.3 install postgresql-client-common install postgresql-common install postgresql-contrib-9.3 install postgresql-plperl-9.3 install postgresql-server-dev-9.3 install # apt-get remove postgresql-plperl-9.3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996916 Title: postgresql packages in the removal blacklist making it hard to upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/996916/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
