As has been reported in this bug a number of times, do-release-upgrade doesn't work either.

I upgraded apt and dpkg and still needed to override the apt configuration variable to finally get it to install. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990740 Title: upgrading from lucid to precise fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-defaults/+bug/990740/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
