[Bug 996916] Re: postgresql packages in the removal blacklist making it hard to upgrade

[Quinn Balazs]

I'm trying to say that if you're still experiencing this issue and you have
updated past Oneiric (11.10) this is NOT the same bug. postgres was in the
removal blacklist due to Bug 871893. Fix released for 871893 in Oneiric
Updates. Therefore if it is in the removal blacklist again, it is a
different issue altogether, Do not keep adding reports to an invalid bug
from 2015 that was due to something now marked Fix Released. Please for the
love of dog, report a new bug, with new logs.

Title:
  postgresql packages in the removal blacklist making it hard to upgrade

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I have got this pop-up error message while updating from Ubuntu
  version 11.04 to 11.10:

  Could not calculate the upgrade

  An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade:
  The package 'postgresql-plperl-8.4' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist.

   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 update-manager' in a terminal.
