Public bug reported:

it won't let me upgrade saying it's 3rd party software even though it
says it disabled them. i found someone else on the ubuntu site
http://askubuntu.com/questions/451616/answer/submit but i couldn't
follow the fix they suggest. i got a y ppa manager in case it was
sources.lists talked about in the thread, but no joy. i'm lost. i've
never had this problem with an upgrade before. don't think i have added
any  3rd party software since last upgrade

i am only a geekling. i am in way over my head. and i need this upgrade
