I upgraded to Debian 10, but 750 or so packages were held back. I read that i
can try running apt-get --with-new-pkgs upgrade, which I did, but I still have

Tried apt-get install <list of packages held back>, but they are still held
back. How do I upgrade them?Thanks!Luben

When I see "The following packages have been kept back", I usually type:
# apt-get dist-upgrade
That said, I no longer do major version upgrades. I backup, pull the
system disk, install a wiped disk, do a fresh install, and reconfigure/
migrate/ restore.
