upgrading Ubuntu 22.10 to 23.04 is having some problems on my machine. Could anyone be so kind and help me please? I tried to upgrade with both graphical interface and in terminal. In terminal it was as follows:

The upgrade still not working through gui either. Thanks for any new ideas.

I purge removed megasync and the ubuntu upgrade started like a charm now, thank you so much @user535733 and quiverc.

    The command apt dist-upgrade will not upgrade your kinetic or 22.10 system to lunar or 23.04; the help.ubuntu.com/community/LunarUpgrades tells you how to perform that upgrade; but you've made it more complex as kinetic is EOL & the main archive is moved, and mirrors are free to drop support after EOL (your pasted details show you using a mirror). Thus you must enact procedures covered help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades first

  • Thank you very much quiverc for the help, I tried to follow the steps from both links you sent and it seems something is slowly moving forward, the upgrade still not working yet though. I continued as updated in the code above. Thank you for any ideas.

    It's right there in your output: The following packages have been kept back: megasync. Fix that or remove it. It's blocking the release-upgrade.
