Bug Description

This is the error from the upgrade command:

"""
Could not calculate the upgrade

An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.

This can be caused by:
* Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu

You seem to have installed the cinnamon package on Ubuntu 13.10. Unfortunately, that package is not available yet for 14.04. To upgrade to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS you'll need to either wait for a fix for cinnamon to be available or uninstall the package and then upgrade.
