I was trying to perform a desktop LTS - to - desktop LTS upgrade and
ended up with what looked like a depedency hell. In other words, a
window popped up and explained in (some form of) French that
dependencies could not be resolved, the upgrade failed and my system
reverted back to Dapper. I tried a second time, same result.
In both cases, the command line looked like this:
$ gksu "update-manager -d"
warnings.warn("apt API not stable yet", FutureWarning)
extracting '/tmp/tmpZg150V/hardy.tar.gz'
authenticate '/tmp/tmpZg150V/hardy.tar.gz' against
'/tmp/tmpZg150V/hardy.tar.gz.gpg'
WARNING: Failed to read mirror file
WARNING: Failed to read mirror file
I meant to get a screen capture in order to get the full message in
English, so I tried this, but then it worked:
$ export LANG=C
$ gksu "update-manager -d"
warnings.warn("apt API not stable yet", FutureWarning)
extracting '/tmp/tmpo5KXdQ/hardy.tar.gz'
authenticate '/tmp/tmpo5KXdQ/hardy.tar.gz' against
'/tmp/tmpo5KXdQ/hardy.tar.gz.gpg'
WARNING: Failed to read mirror file
WARNING: Failed to read mirror file
Then pop-up message gave three "reasons" for failure (all revolving around
unsupported packages, which does not really make much sense in my case).
Anyway, here is my /var/log/dist-upgrade, sorry I do not have files showing the
failure.
I would suspect that my problem is related with calculating depencies
failing when the locale is not "C".
