[Bug 1314739] Re: Unable to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04
Many thanks Brian for pointing this out. For anyone else who finds this via a search engine, I fixed my problem with the help of some information from http://askubuntu.com/questions/202730/how-to-fix-the- unable-to-calculate-upgrade-issue-when-upgrading-from-12-04-to. Specifically I executed: sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-* to remove an XVideo driver that was blocking my upgrade. After this I was able to complete a successful upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1314739 Title: Unable to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1314739/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1314739] Re: Unable to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04
The upgrade fails because of at least this package: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.911+git1404231930.5fbbfd~gd~s 0 This is from a PPA and not the official Ubuntu repositories and includes a version number greater than the package provided by the official Ubuntu repositories. Subsequently, the upgrade is unable to succeed. You'll need to use the tool ppa-purge to install the official version of the Ubuntu packages and disable the PPA before the upgrade can succeed. Thanks and good luck. ** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1314739 Title: Unable to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1314739/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1314739] Re: Unable to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04
I just noticed that the debugging info above suggests I updated to Saucy yesterday. This is incorrect. Looking at my apt logs, I have installed Saucy back in October 2013. In case it is relevant, I have changed computers since. My current spindle (an SSD) was in my old notebook computer which developed intermittent hardware faults so I purchased a new notebook in March this year and simply moved the SSD into the new notebook. Perhaps this (or the intermittent hardware faults) have contributed to/caused my current upgrade problem? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1314739 Title: Unable to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1314739/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
