to the system. My biggest concern is that they are pointing at an <br>
Ubuntu 14.04 repository.... Is your machine running Ubuntu 14.04? If <br>
so, that version stopped being supported in 2019, unless you pay Ubuntu <br>
a subscription for extended support. In any case that's probably not <br>
your main problem.<br>
<br>
I don't like using any of the GUIs for big updates because they haven't <br>
been very good at handing odd problems and end up breaking your system <br>
when they don't know what to do, especially on the older versions of the <br>
distributions.<br>
<br>
I'd do the upgrade from the command line and just do:<br>
sudo apt-get update<br>
sudo apt-get -f dist-upgrade<br>
<br>
The update command will likely give you the same error about the getdeb <br>
packages. You could comment those repositories out if the error is <br>
bugging you.<br>
Upgrading from the command line will hopefully give you a nice human <br>
readable error that you will be able to handle and get the install to <br>
finish.<br>
