Re: [orca-list] Interesting problem, Ubuntu says there are software updates, but packages are being hled back?



Or simply just type
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
to upgrade all packages.

Hi,

It means that those packages have new dependencies. therefore, you need to install the packages again to get the updates. Just use:

sudo apt-get install <package-name1> <package-name2> <etc>
