I've been trying to update my Itanium workstation to Gutsy for quite some time now. I even tried a 'clean' install only to roll back to Feisty. Every time I try to upgrade IA64 to Gutsy, I see following messages:
"Getting upgrade prerequisites failed The system was unable to get the prerequisites for the upgrade. The upgrade will abort now and restore the original system state. Please report this as a bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport." After following bug report's suggestion, I go to /var/log/dist-upgrade and this is what I see: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/log/dist-upgrade]$ $=> ls -ltr total 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2007-12-26 10:43 apt.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2007-12-26 11:14 term.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5080 2007-12-26 11:14 main.log [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/log/dist-upgrade]$ $=> There is no 'bugreport.*'. I guess, this is another "bug" to report. In any case, main.log reports this: $=> cat main.log 2007-12-26 11:14:39,579 INFO release-upgrader version '0.81' started 2007-12-26 11:14:40,352 DEBUG lsb-release: 'feisty' 2007-12-26 11:14:40,353 DEBUG _pythonSymlinkCheck run 2007-12-26 11:14:40,965 DEBUG checkViewDepends() 2007-12-26 11:14:40,966 DEBUG getRequiredBackports() 2007-12-26 11:14:43,845 ERROR IOError in cache.update(): 'Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty-backports/main/debian-installer/binary-ia64/Packages.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.46 80] Failed to fetch http://ftp.esat.net/mirrors/archive.ubuntu.com/dists/feisty/main/binary-ia64/Packages.gz 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/feisty/main/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ftp.esat.net/mirrors/archive.ubuntu.com/dists/feisty-security/main/binary-ia64/Packages.gz 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/feisty/restricted/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ftp.esat.net/mirrors/archive.ubuntu.com/dists/feisty-security/restricted/binary-ia64/Packages.gz 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ftp.esat.net/mirrors/archive.ubuntu.com/dists/feisty-updates/main/binary-ia64/Packages.gz 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ftp.esat.net/mirrors/archive.ubuntu.com/dists/feisty-updates/restricted/binary-ia64/Packages.gz 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/feisty-updates/main/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/feisty-updates/restricted/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/feisty-security/main/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/feisty-security/restricted/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found '.
