This message is different from the ones shown. But I am rather sure it is very related. The versions listed as 'depends' are all mixed up from the ones installed for the hplip parts (drivers).

from VarLogDistupgradeAptLog.gz:

WARNING:root:Can't parse kernel uname: 'too many values to unpack' (self compiled?)
MarkUpgrade() called on a non-upgrable pkg: 'brasero'
ERROR:root:Upgrading 'brasero' failed

-> reassigning to Brasero for further triage. I think this bug report might be invalid.
