Public bug reported:
Since a few days ago, every time I start the computer I get an update
icon in the notification area, and an error message when I open it:
Could not calculate the upgrade
An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.
Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the
following error message:
'E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by
held packages.'
After closing the message box, update manager wants to upgrade every
package in the system.
