Public bug reported: when upgrading from version .04 to .10 with the update manager (the one that loads on startup and asks you if you'd like to upgrade), I get the following error message partway into the upgrade:
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Could not determine 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 If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the command 'ubuntu-bug update-manager' in a terminal. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ I'm not on a pre-release version, neither am I updating to a pre-release version. All of the packages I have installed (that I'm aware of) have come either from the ubuntu store, or the synaptic package manager.
