Today I tried upgrading from Kubuntu 22.04 to 23.10 using the following
command:
sudo do-release-upgrade
It went through the motions then came up with the following error message:
An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.
This was likely caused by: * Unofficial software packages not
provided by Ubuntu Please use the tool 'ppa-purge' from the
ppa-purge package to remove software from a Launchpad PPA and try
the upgrade again.
I read up on ppa-purge and gathered that it will uninstall a
program that was installed via a purged ppa if there isn't an
earlier version in one of the official Ubuntu repositories.
How am I supposed to know what ppa to purge? Am I supposed to go
through them one at a time until the upgrade is successful? I
imagine a horror story of purging a bunch of programs, not
remembering what they are then finding out over the next few weeks
as I try to run a program only to find it's not there and figuring
out how to reinstall it again.
Or is there something I'm missing?
thanks
