This has been happening for months for me but I did not have the time to report it. Attached is a video link to see what is happening.
I’m still on 19.04 as I did not get any notification for update.
what’s the output of the following from the terminal?:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgradeSeems it is updating once I ran that, before I was running sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade I thought it was the same but I guess not.
Now I have another issue, the upgrade to 19.10 button does not do anything, is there also something I can do from the command line?
Don’t forget to reboot before opening up the software update window again.
I just rebooted pressed upgrade, window closed and nothing happened.
if you run update-manager from a terminal any output?
update-manager

The following packages have been kept back:
libodbc1 winehq-staging
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.
hmm - something from those PPA’s has fiddled with dbus.
Suggestion - do make sure you have a full disk image backup handy just in-case things go bang.
Switch to a TTY i.e. CTRL+ALT+F3 and login via the text screen.
Then type:
do-release-upgrade
That should run the release upgrade process.

Same thing happens, it says
Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading.
run:
sudo apt dist-upgrade
That should force those extra updates to be installed.
I removed the 2 packages that it wouldnt upgrade, and now it worked. Thanks.
