Upgrade 10.4 to 10.10 fails

[John Haynes]

Binary package hint: update-manager

Started upgrade from 10.4 to 10.10 from Update Manager. At second step, got the following error:

Could not calculate the upgrade

An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade:

E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

 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

If none of this applies, then please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bug report.

None of the suggested causes appear to be applicable. I recently installed applications Scribus, Audacity and Wine, but these were through the package manager so I thought they would not cause issues.

Version:
You are using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
                - the Lucid Lynx - released in April 2010 and supported until April 2013.

main.log file seems to have a problem related to running in Server Mode versus Desktop mode. This is a desktop system.
