I upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 via do-release-upgrade -d. From the terminal everything looked fine. However, when I reboot my desktop again, I found that it's a broken upgrade, icons are lost, some apps like nautilus can't launch, etc.


I ran apt update and it shows 357 packages can be upgraded. but when I did apt upgrade -y

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 357 not upgraded.

Basically, the system didn't allow me to upgrade.
When I tried to install some of these manually, the most common problem it returns is


The following packages have unmet dependencies:
gsettings-desktop-schemas : Breaks: mutter (< 3.31.4) but 3.28.4-0ubuntu18.04.2 is to be installed
libreoffice-common : Breaks: libreoffice-core (< 1:6.4.2~rc1) but 1:6.0.7-0ubuntu0.18.04.10 is to be installed
Recommends: python3-uno (>= 4.4.0~beta2) but it is not going to be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

So it's defi something wrong with the dependencies, but I yet don't know how to fix.


Here is my update log where errors are found


$ cat /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log|grep error
MarkInstall libgpg-error0:amd64 < 1.27-6 -> 1.37-1 @ii umU IPb > FU=0

This is solved by using apt full-upgrade suggested by @guiverc. As man apt describes:



upgrade is used to install available upgrades of all packages currently installed on the system from the, but existing packages will never be removed. If an upgrade for a package requires the remove of an installed package the upgrade for this package isn't performed.



Also, make sure the check if your repo (/etc/apt/source.list) is up-to-date.
