Bug Description

Upgrade failed during "Setting new software channels". Content of Error message box:
Could not calculate the upgrade
An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the update: 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 using the command ubuntu-bug update-manaf\ger in a terminal.

Well - I used the "Report Bug" button instead.

I can replicate the bug - it happens every time I try to upgrade on this computer. Upgraded another machine this AM just fine...

UPDATE: Found the held package "kdevelop" and fixed that problem - that took care of the upgrade problem as well.
