[Bug 1307904] Re: Cannot upgrade to 14.04 due to grep:i386

[Brian Murray]

I've verified that the version of ubuntu-release-upgrader in trusty-
proposed could properly calculate the upgrade from saucy to trusty when
grep:i386 was installed.

Title:
  Cannot upgrade to 14.04 due to grep:i386

Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  SRU instructions:
  1. use saucy (minimal install is fine)
  2. sudo apt-get install grep:i386
  3. do-release-upgrade -d
  4. verify that it fails with a error message that the upgrade can not be calculated

  6. do-release-upgrade --proposed
  7. verify that the upgrade works and that it removes grep:i386 and installs grep:amd64

  Calculating the changes

  Could not calculate the upgrade

  An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.

  This can be caused by:
  * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
  * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
  * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu

  If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the
  command 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal.
