Just after upgrading my Xubuntu 13.10 to Xubuntu 14.04, I run the command:
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and tell me that upgrade are available, and after do it again and again I get the same result after installing thus packages.
Note: all packages are really installed, is like to reinstall them every time

dist-upgrade does NOT upgrade the system.
From the apt-get man page:
dist-upgrade
In addition to performing the function of upgrade, this option also intelligently handles changing dependencies with new versions of packages; apt-get has a "smart" conflict resolution system, and it will attempt to upgrade the most important packages at the expense of less important ones, if necessary.
To upgrade , run sudo updater
Or to do so graphically, see http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/upgrade and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes

The -d option is not necessary, and in fact should not be used. From the man page " -d, --devel-release Check if upgrading to the latest devel release is possible". You do not want to upgrade to the dev release ;) At any rate, post your commands and error messages.– PantherApr 18, 2014 at 21:38

this is result of 'lsb-release -a': 'No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Release: 14.04 Codename: trusty '– karimApr 18, 2014 at 21:56

The problem is that I've made a partial upgrade so I got some Ubuntu 14.04 packages but not all, when I've finish All upgrades that remained I no longer have any issues now. Thank you guys for your help.
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade, followed bysudo apt-get dist-upgrade. Try that, and report if there is still an issue.sudo apt-get updatecan confuse things, and he may be being confused by MOTD reminders for updates available.
