    Question Partial upgrade

    The new updates to Maverick is starting to come in regularly.

    There is also partial upgrades that can be done, but I get an box that says: An upgrade from Maverick to Lucid is not supported by this tool.

    Can somebody please confirm this behavior or is it a configuration issue on my install?

    Thanks.

    I can confirm this. But, upgrading with Synaptic works fine.

    Yesterday's update removed Evolution from my machine. No problem as I don't use it anyway.

    Re: Partial upgrade

    The initial "problem" is not solved...
    What does:
    Can not upgrade
    An upgrade from 'maverick' to 'lucid' is not supported with this tool.
    mean?

    Or, this bug could be a great firewall for all partial upgrades...

    Re: Partial upgrade

    I marked as solved because the behavior was confirmed, I assume some later update will solve the issue.
