[00:05] <Bashing-om> xu-help78w: ^^Workie :D ... "open (13: Permission denied)" means that "sudo" is required. python-tk is available.
[00:10] <xu-help78w> What a simple error ... Embarrassing !! ... the web page I was looking at assumed I knew to do that !!
[00:10] <xu-help78w> THANKS so much !!!!
[00:12] <Bashing-om> xu-help78w: Hey - we all have those moments :P We watch the backside for ya :F
[02:07] <xu-irc58w> Anybody, know when is LTS 18.04 going to be able to be upgraded using do-release-upgrade? Is there another method I should be using?
[02:12] <tomreyn> search the web for    ubuntu 20.04 release announcement
[02:12] <tomreyn> that's assuming you're meaning to upgrade to that
[02:13] <Bashing-om> xu-irc58w: ^^ Too: The upgrade path opens with the .1 release ( August) . There is the -d switch however to upgrade now.
[02:15] <xu-irc58w> Thanks, I I remember checking in with you guys back in June and I thought July was mentioned. Thanks for the update. I'm muking with -d; something is broken, but I will do more triage before bugging you guys.
[02:16] <Bashing-om> xu-irc58w: The .1 release has been pushed to August.
[02:18] <xu-irc58w> That's fair, this is free software. I appreciate the work you guys are doing!

[03:35] <xu-irc58w> Running "do-release-upgrade --allow-third-party --mode=desktop -d" bails out...
[03:36] <xu-irc58w> Looking in /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log I see a line "ERROR Dist-upgrade failed: 'E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.'"
[03:40] <xu-irc58w> Looking in "/var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log" I see a bunch of messages about holds but they're for very fundamental packages like python2.
[03:41] <tomreyn> purge packages from all ppas, then disable all ppa configurations, then try again
[03:42] <tomreyn> if it still reports the same you can install and run apt-forktracer to identiy packages you ay not want to keep installed.
[03:47] <xu-irc58w> I'm pretty darned sure I have no PPAs set up and consequently no packages installed from them ("grep -r -i ppa /etc/apt/" has no results)
[03:47] <xu-irc58w> And I also get no lines printed from running apt-forktracer
[03:50] <xu-irc58w> Also, "apt-mark showhold" brings back no held packages
[03:50] <xu-irc58w> Any ideas on alternative lines of inquiry into do-release-upgrade's behavior in this situation?
[04:18] <sekhog> Hello!
