Hi

I'm on ubuntu 7.40 and I would like to upgrade to ubuntu 7.10.

I get the following error from package manager:



Getting upgrade prerequisites failed
The system was unable to get the prerequisites for the upgrade. The upgrade will abort now and restore the original system state.

Please report this as a bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport.


How can I fix this problem?

Thanks in advance

Ali

Are you specifically trying to update to 7.10? 8.04 is out now. Try that.

No, not specifically, I thought I should do that in order to upgrade to 8.04, also I think I've update problems.

Before upgrading, you should install all the upgrades for your current system.

Hi

The problem is that I can't update. When I try to update, it failes.

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

If that doesn´t work


cat /etc/apt/sources.list

and post it here.
