Hi ,

I have upgraded my Ubuntu version from 12.04 tor 14.04, it was not successful(as my system hung in the middle of installation) but I have somehow managed to upgrade from the terminal(ctrl + alt + F1) using upgrade and update commands.

There are few errors that I am unable to remove/update them.

Below is the output
