[Bug 1799319] Re: Upgrade to 18.10 fails: Please install all available updates
I had forgotten I had submitted this bug report, and just encountered this same issue when I upgraded from 21.04 to 21.10. I reported my problem with this latest upgrade on the Ubuntu Mate Community forum. At least I'm consistent: the post there reads almost exactly like my bug report here. :) See details here: https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/prompt-to-upgrade-21-04-to-21-10-does- nothing/24672 This is a little disheartening that the same issue continues 2 1/2 years later. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1799319 Title: Upgrade to 18.10 fails: Please install all available updates To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1799319/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Brian, thanks for the responses. Please see my last action: root@ubuntu64:~# apt-get purge lldb This allowed do-release-upgrade to finally proceed. gnome-shell and gnome-shell-common were wild gooses. The key ingredient seems to be this: root@ubuntu64:~# apt-get upgrade The following packages have been kept back: lldb Once I purged lldb, the release upgrade was clear to go. So, the hiccup seems to be held-back packages. I don't know enough about the inner workings of the upgrade process to understand how held-back packages figure into it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1799319 Title: Upgrade to 18.10 fails: Please install all available updates To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1799319/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It does seem that check-new-release-gtk will silently exit if there are available updates. However, if you run it via the command line you'll see the error. $ /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release-gtk -d Checking for a new Ubuntu release Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading. So the next step would be to see if the thing that calls check-new- release-gtk is aware of whether there are updates available. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1799319 Title: Upgrade to 18.10 fails: Please install all available updates To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1799319/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1799319] Re: Upgrade to 18.10 fails: Please install all available updates
Neither gnome-shell nor gnome-shell-common are currently phasing so that is not the issue. Perhaps there is a disconnect between what update- manager thinks is available and what apt does? Or maybe the pop up regarding release upgrades raises even if do-release-upgrade won't run. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1799319 Title: Upgrade to 18.10 fails: Please install all available updates To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1799319/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I just encountered this exact same scenario running Ubuntu Mate 19.04. Software Updater believes all updates have been applied. I get the pop- up saying 19.10 is available, I click the Upgrade button, and the dialog disappears and nothing happens. Again, I drop to a command prompt: root@ubuntu64:~# do-release-upgrade Checking for a new Ubuntu release Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading. root@ubuntu64:~# apt-get upgrade (following update) The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: liblldb-8 llvm-8 llvm-8-dev llvm-8-runtime Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them.

Brian, thanks for the reply. I didn't get notified so I missed your reply. I used my workaround to eventually update the VM, so I can no longer test the failed upgrade.

[Bug 1799319] Re: Upgrade to 18.10 fails: Please install all available updates
I was wondering how I could possible recreate this scenario. Coincidentally, I received your update on the same day I learned that 19.04 was available. So, I started up the VirtualBox VM containing Ubuntu Mate 18.10. I got a pop up telling me that 19.04, and asking if I would like to upgrade. I hadn't started this VM in over a week, so I ran Software Updater to check for updates. Some were available, so I installed them first. Once finished, I closed Software Updater, then clicked the Upgrade button on the original popup. The popup disappeared and nothing happened! So, I'm back in this same situation as I was when I first reported this issue. I tried rebooting so the updates applied by Software Updater were running. The same thing is happening. I run Software Updater; it reports no updates are available, but a new version is available. When I click the upgrade button, Software Updater disappears and nothing happens. I'm going to shut down the VM and back it up, so I can repeat this scenario. Please let me know what steps you'd like me to take. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1799319 Title: Upgrade to 18.10 fails: Please install all available updates To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1799319/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
