Software Updater - Partial Upgrade

1

22.04.3

After the fuss around the 6.2 upgrade, I still can’t clear the "Partial Upgrade’ when running Software Updater. Everything updates correctly when using apt or synaptic. I have tried cleaning the apt cache, deleting the lists folder in /var/lib/apt, but nothing works. Any suggestions?

hmm…

check that your package manager isnt waiting for another packaging issue to be resolved:

sudo apt update
sudo dpkg --configure -a

If you run

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Are there any packages listed that are being held back from being installed?

Try a different mirror via software-properties-gtk

5

Tried a different server but no change. After all the problems with the 6.2 upgrade I may need to reinstall.

Worth trying this to see if there are any hidden broken package issues

Tried suggestions still have problem. It’s no big deal, I normally use apt for updating.
