Aha. We should start being better about keeping the PPA in shape for Maverick, then. I've just gone through and copied lucid versions of pocket-lint, bzr-lpreview-body and launchpad-dependencies (!) to maverick and karmic. Everyone, please remember when you upload to the PPA to take care of all active distroseries, if you can. Also, I note there's a bzr-pqm package for lucid in the PPA - a recipe build(?) by matsubara. Could someone scribble something on https://dev.launchpad.net/LaunchpadPpa about why it's there, so we know whether we need an equivalent for maverick? (And in theory, karmic and hardy). > =================================== > Adventures in Upgrading to Maverick > > from a terminal run > update-manage -d > > I experienced this error on all three computers: > Key (error): Could not calculate the upgrade > An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the > upgrade: > E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, > this may be caused by held packages. > This can be caused by: > * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu > * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu > * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu This can also be caused by pinning using apt preferences. > Which is possibly this bug which has an ongoing list of packages > that cause the problem > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/614993 > > I was running Unity from a PPA.
