I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. When I try to update my system, i get the following error message:
Software Updater - Not all updates can be installed
I googled and some suggested to fix the broken packages using sudo apt-get install -f
. But that did not work for me.
When I use apt-get upgrade
this is the message I receive:
Reading package lists...
Building dependency tree...
Reading state information...
The following packages have been kept back:
gir1.2-rb-3.0 gir1.2-totem-1.0 librhythmbox-core8 libtotem-plparser18 libva1
libvlc5 libvncserver0 linux-generic-lts-utopic
linux-headers-generic-lts-utopic linux-image-generic-lts-utopic rhythmbox

Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Abort.
What i don't get is why the linux kernel image has the name linux-image-generic-lts-utopic
(Why does it contain the word utopic
, even though the code name is trusty
)? I also looked at the /etc/apt/sources.list
. There is no occurrence of the word utopic
in it.
Things I have tried
- Fix Broken Packages using
apt-get install -f
- The commands :
apt-get autoremove && apt-get clean && apt-get update
What can i do to make the System Updater to work normal? Thanks in advance
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
?dist-upgrade
. Let me check with it.trusty
and notutopic
