Ubuntu 24.04 → 26.04.1 LTS upgrade stuck — Conf Broken sudo-common and coreutils-from-uutils
Hi, I'm experiencing an issue after upgrading my desktop from Ubuntu 24.04 LTS to Ubuntu 26.04.1 LTS. The system is currently running and usable, but I cannot complete the package upgrade due to conflicts involving `sudo-common` and `coreutils- from-uutils`. **Current environment:** - Ubuntu 26.04.1 LTS (Resolute Raccoon) - APT 3.2.0 (amd64) - Kernel: 7.0.0-38-generic - Previously running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS **Current installed versions:** - `sudo`: 1.9.15p5-3ubuntu5.24.04.4 - `coreutils`: 9.4-3ubuntu6.3 - `sudo-common`: not installed - `coreutils-from-uutils`: not installed **Problem:** Running `sudo apt-get -s full-upgrade` produces: ``` 149 upgraded, 144 newly installed, 5 to remove and 6 not upgraded. E: Conf Broken coreutils-from-uutils:amd64 E: Conf Broken sudo-common:amd64 ``` Trying to upgrade sudo separately also fails: ``` sudo apt-get -s install sudo=1.9.17p2-1ubuntu3.2 sudo-common=1.2ubuntu Conf sudo-common:amd64 broken Breaks:sudo:amd64 E: Conf Broken sudo-common:amd64 ``` Selecting `coreutils-from-gnu` instead of `coreutils-from-uutils` results in a similar conflict with the currently installed `coreutils`. Already performed: - `dpkg --audit`: no errors - `apt-get check`: no broken dependencies - No manually held packages (`apt-mark showhold`) - Successfully upgraded 179 packages using `apt-get --no-remove upgrade` - Repaired an unrelated `initramfs-tools` failure caused by the `dhcpcd` hook - Successfully regenerated `/boot/initrd.img-7.0.0-38-generic` - Tried both standard and internal APT solvers, with identical results The system is currently working, but the migration remains incomplete. My question: Is there a recommended and safe procedure to complete the transition of `sudo`, `sudo-common`, and `coreutils` on an already partially upgraded Ubuntu 26.04 system? In particular, is there a supported way to handle the package ordering conflicts without forcing the removal of essential packages or risking loss of sudo access? I would prefer to repair the existing installation rather than reinstall Ubuntu.
