What apt-mark showhold says ? Maybe there is some packages on hold status? What apt-cache policy apt says ? (apt is only one of the packages which doesn't want to upgrade on your system) What apt (or apt-get) install apt says (after apt update)? (try to upgrade only apt, to see what happen) I'm not sure why there are these 529 packags in a non upgradable status. I have 164 packages installed that are on your list, and all upgraded to the latest unstable version (105 of them has lib on their names) on this system Regards,
