Attempt to upgrade from 6.06 LTS to 6.10 Beta

Dunno if it is the same issue, but when trying to upgrade my 6.06 Dapper to 6.10 Edgy I receive an "Could not calculate upgrade"-error.

The upgrade process stops, and I am kindly asked to submit a bug with files from /var/log/dist-upgrade attached...

Ok. These are two different bugs.

Nikos - could you give us more information. What happened? What errors did you get?

2hansen - could you start a new bug with the information you posted here? Thanks

Probably it's the same issue!

Hi!

Here it is:
---

.I try to run the following command as given in the official wiki-page
for edgy beta:

gksu "update-manager -c -d"

.the ouput is:

 warnings.warn("apt API not stable yet", FutureWarning)

.and in the Software updates dialog appears a new window informing the
following:

Cannot install all available updates

Some updates require the removal of further software. Use the function
"Mark All Upgrades" of the package manager "Synaptic" or run "sudo
apt-get dist-upgrade" in a terminal to update your system completely.

Following updates will be skipped:

build-essential
checkinstall
dpkg-dev
fakeroot
g++
libc6-dev

.Then i hit upgrade in the Software updates dialog.

Again "Upgrade" to skip the release notes reading.

.and... :

Third party sources disabled

Some third party entries in your sources.list were disabled. You can
re-enable them after the upgrade with the 'software-properties' tool or
with synaptic.

.I hit "close" and it seems to carry on with the update process. But,
when it comes to "Fetching and installing the upgrades"... a new window
appears sayin':

"Can't install 'ubuntu-desktop'

It was impossible to install a required package. Please report this as a
bug. "

and in the next window:

"Could not calculate the upgrade

A unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.

Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include
the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport."

I hit "close" and some restore actions follow.

---

Cheers,

Nikos.

I have created a new bug (Bug #63301)with "my" issue...

Thanks 2hansen for creating a new report about the issue.

@Νίκος Αλεξανδρής:
Could you please add the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/* to this bugreport?

Thanks,
 Michael

Should I add them in the launchpad or should I mail them to You? Anyway,

I'll try to do both!

Sorry if it's wrong to send them to You.

Greetins,

Nikos.
