| marky_ | Hi Ubuntu Studio folks. I wonder if someone might be able to offer me some advice: I'm trying to upgrade from 22.04 to 22.10 (and then on to 23.04). but, when i run `do-release-upgrade -m desktop` i get `Could not determine the upgrade An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.` whilst /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log reports ERROR Dist-upgrade failed: 'The package | 16:14 |
|---|---|---|
| marky_ | 'ubuntustudio-desktop-core' is marked for removal but it is in the removal deny list.' | 16:14 |
| marky_ | i've tried various angles at exploring package installation and searching for error terms and I can't find anything that seems to relate to my system, nor clues about how to investigate this further | 16:15 |
| marky_ | all thoughts and insight most gratefully received | 16:15 |
| tomreyn | marky_: what does apt list ubuntustudio-desktop-core print? | 16:20 |
| tomreyn | (just the one relevant line please) | 16:20 |
| marky_ | ubuntustudio-desktop-core/now 0.210 amd64 [installed,local] | 16:20 |
| marky_ | +=thank you | 16:20 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Means it wasn't installed from the repositories bit downloaded and installed locally | 16:32 |
| Eickmeyer | marky_: ubuntustudio-desktop-core doesn't exist in 22.04, so remove it. This is a sign that you in-place upgraded from 20.04, despite THE RELEASE NOTES TELLING YOU OTHERWISE. NO SUPPORT IS PROVIDED. | 16:41 |
| Eickmeyer | Read the topic please. | 16:42 |
| Eickmeyer | In-place upgrades are NOT supported from 20.04 to later releases for this very reason. We can't support breakages that happen. | 16:43 |
| marky_ | eeek; thanks Eickmeyer, i can see that that may well have happened, and i may not have properly read release-notes in the past | 16:55 |
| marky_ | I'll have an explore and see what i can do with regard to removing ubuntustudio-desktop-core and evaluating upgrades | 16:56 |
| Eickmeyer | marky_: Just as a warning, 22.10 goes EOL on Thursday, so your time is a bit limited. | 16:56 |
| marky_ | indeed, i had realised this, hence revisiting this today (having failed and puzzled and given up once) | 16:57 |
| marky_ | I only want to upgrade off LTS if i can double upgrade via 22.10 to 23.04 | 16:57 |
| Eickmeyer | You may have to back-up your home directory and reinstall if it takes too much time to do the upgrade (as was advised for 20.04 => 22.04). | 16:58 |
| marky_ | i keep /home et al on separate partitions, with backups, so a fresh install of 23.04 isn't a bad option for me (just setup & config faff and so on); i'll keep it in mind | 16:59 |
| marky_ | many thanks for the advice | 17:01 |
| Eickmeyer | Quite welcome. | 17:01 |
