[Bug 827736] [NEW] Upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 fails because of isc-dhcp-client

[Àlex Magaz]

Public bug reported:

When trying to upgrade from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04 update-manager fails
with the following message:

An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade:
E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

I'm attaching files from '/var/log/dist-upgrade/'.

I don't get any output from the command 'dpkg --get-selections | grep
hold'.

A dist-upgrade from the terminal gives me the following output:

$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Failed
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
