Hi guys/gals,
I tried to upgrade one of my systems, and it "kept back" some packages. As I want to upgrade all, I did the following: # apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...

How can I eliminate the message "The following packages have been kept back: mplayer transcode vlc vlc-nox vlc-plugin-notify vlc-plugin-pulse xvidcap" ? Thanks!
