Bug Description
I am preparing an old computer to give away, and have installed Peppermint 10.
The other day, I invoked Update Manager, to make sure all packages were as up-to-date as possible prior to calling my work finished, and giving away the computer.
There were 230 or so packages to update, and after it ran for awhile, it reported that it had finished all there was for one media, and asked if I wished to continue for another media.
I had no idea what it was talking about, but assumed it knew what it was supposed to do and said "OK".
It shortly put up a window that said (approximately):
"Some packages could not be installed ... would you like to proceed anyway?"
Sure! might as well do what you can. I can try again in a couple days...
There were 28 (?) packages that it could not find ("W: ... 404 Not Found")
under the heading:
"E: Internal Error, ordering was unable to handle the media swap".
I still don't know what "Media Swap" is, but the same thing happened when I tried to get
these final 28 packages a couple of days later.
I will attach a text file showing the output.
I then did apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, and it then successfully installed 35 packages.
tl;dr but the few packages I compared appeared to have a later version in the successfully installed apt-get packages.
I will attach a text file showing the apt-get terminal output, as well.
[I attempted to report this with ubuntu-bug, but it was not installed.
Is there a Peppermint bug-reporting package here somewhere, or ... ?]
In case it is of interest, I will attach also the output of "inxi -Fpm"
