Breezy to Dapper problem
on: April 05, 2006, 08:59:30 AM
I did an upgrade from breezy to dapper yesterday, and I think I may have stuffed up somewhere.

I have a problem when I run the update manager.
This morning it told me I had 15 updates to install, so off it went and installed it.

I got this error at the end though...



But it doesnt seem to do anything when I run it.  That always stops with an error

Maybe they are incompatability with the system.

Try running updates without multiverse and universe

Id have thought it would be a compatable system, its a Dell Latitude D400.

I have a similar issue and Ive not upgraded to dapper yet. Want to but I aint downloading a huge iso image just to do it. Prefer to wait until there are some dapper apt-get sources.

But I have the latest version of totem that refuses to install even in a smart upgrade. :| lol. Damn annoying popping up damn notifyier as well as it does nowt.

Goto sources.lst and change all the breezy to dapper then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Max will be able to give you more/better info

When in synaptic in the options is the repositories. Just untick the multiverse and universe and any other you have addedentries . Then you only have the official repositories.

TBH i doubt it will help but having only official downloads cant harm

This is an "OMG dont worry about it" issue. Apt found issue with three packages and compatibility, just doing its job.

Does everything still work? Yeah? Then chill.

My Dapper install does the same thing when upgrading btw. ;)

Spooky! LOL

try doing it the noobular way and fire up synaptic and punch the refresh button.  After downloading, the little red update icon should shine nice an bright like a horny male dogs undercarriage lipstick. I usually close synaptic, then open the update manager, as it seems to be smarter about updating than plain ole synaptic.

When youre done, grab Maxs fun bag o themes!!!:
