Public bug reported: Binary package hint: update-manager
Upgrading a Mac G3 from Ubuntu 6.06.2 to 8.04 fails at the beginning (prerequisites). Command: gksu "update-manager -d" Error (from /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log): 'Failed to fetch http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/dapper-backports/main/debian-installer/binary-powerpc/Packages.gz 404 Not Found' This URL is generated by the application and inserted into "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/prerequists-sources.dapper-ports.list", which is then used by the upgrader. I've checked manually, and the URL in fact does not exist! I have found another URL that may be the correct one, but I'm not sure: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper-backports/main/debian-installer/binary-powerpc/Packages.gz Anyway, what is the workaround for this? ** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Dapper-to-Hardy upgrade fails on PowerPC (prerequisite dapper-backports missing) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226217 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
