the package gtk-nodoka-engine doesn't seem to come from an official Ubuntu repository. Can you please remove it and retry the upgrade.

Thanks.

Lufti, you've removed both package, for sure it solves the problem :)
My question was only regarding gtk-nodoka-engine in order to determine if you have a repository enabled that provide this package or not.

Well, I'm closing this report because there is no more issue and no known duplicate. But feel free to reopen if you're able to reproduce this issue with packages from an official Ubuntu repository.

Thanks for your time.
