Error in Jautny upgrade - now only partial updates

[WASHAD]

Granted, I should have addressed this right away, but I with a family, a job, and college, I hoped it would go away - it didn't.

When I first upgraded to Jaunty, I got an error during the upgrade. I don't remember the exact details, but something about an error, and how I could only do a partial upgrade.

Everything seemed to work right, so I let it go. When I install updates though, Ubuntu always reminds me that I a can only do a partial update because something went wrong with the original installation.

How do I track this down?

Thanks,

Hi, what happens when you do a partial upgrade?

[earthpigg]

i had a similar problem on my laptop with the partial upgrade nonsense.

so, i went ahead and did all the updates in the command line.


sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

something done by one of those commands fixed it for me. probably dist-upgrade.

It seems to be happy with the partial upgrade, maybe I should be to?

Also, have a look at


cat /etc/apt/sources.list

and make sure your sources are all JAUNTY related.
