which looks to me like there are problems upgrading clutter, bamf and other pacakges to the new versions the directory "20140912-2154/" within "/var/log/dist-upgrade/" is significant on my system as that is when i last ran the upgrade too; it will almost certainly be a different location on other systems, as it is date-stamped. could others who have problems try running a similar command to see if there are other broken packages? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1356142 Title: not able to upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1356142/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
