I upgrade from Mint 20 to 20.1. Everything is running.
However, if I do the command "apt-get ugrade" I receive a message "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded".
I tried to locate which is the culprit package but no luck using the command "apt list --upgradeable". I also tried to locate its name on the log of apt (/var/log/apt/history.log) and again no luck.
How can I locate the package name?
Thanks in advance,
Helio

Re: Upgrade error?
You could try using
apt-get -sv upgrade
(simulated and verbose) but it could just be that you'd need to use sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
(NOTE: this will probably also take you to the next point-release, if one is available) to update that specific package.I use Linux Mint 18.3 with Cinnamon in a VirtualBox VM for testing & sandboxing.

Re: Upgrade error?
You should always run before you try running though if you have only just moved from 20 to 20.1 there may still be nothing to upgrade.
Code: Select all
sudo apt update
Code: Select all
sudo apt upgrade

Re: Upgrade error?
Did you use the first command I gave you to look through its output to determine which package is not being upgraded?
