Thanks for reporting this. Please run the following 2 commands:
sudo apt-get update | tee ~/Desktop/Update1
sudo apt-get upgrade | tee ~/Desktop/Upgrade1
Afterward attach the 2 files that will be located on your desktop.

Thanks, RedSingularity!
Before reading comment #3, I tried updating both wiith update-manager and apt-get, with the same errors as before.
Tnen, after I read those instructions, I ran the two commands.
Here's ~/Desktop/Update1
| Peter Belew (peterbe) wrote : | #5 |
Here's the apt-get upgrade output.
Note the following error:

After running the 2 commands specified in #3, and rebooting, I tried running update-manager - and again got the error message in a popup:
Could not calculate the upgrade
An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.
Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:

Try this:
sudo mv /usr/share/
Then run:
sudo apt-get update
and......
sudo apt-get upgrade | tee ~/Desktop/Upgrade2
Just attach the output from the upgrade. Will be called "Upgrade2" on desktop.
| Peter Belew (peterbe) wrote : | #8 |
I just performed the test in comment #7, after renaming gnome-do.desktop (The file produced I've called Upgrade5, since I did some upgrades in between).
No upgrades were made this time - various upgrades were held back. The output file shows this.
| RedSingularity (redsingularity) wrote : | #9 |
So the error is gone now but you have held packages? Attach your sources.list file. To get it on the desktop run this:
cat /etc/apt/
| Peter Belew (peterbe) wrote : | #10 |
Actually I get the same error when I run update-manager.
Here's my sources.list file.
| RedSingularity (redsingularity) wrote : | #11 |
Sources look good. Nothing foreign in there. Are you getting the error about gnome-do every time you try to update/upgrade the system?
| Peter Belew (peterbe) wrote : | #12 |
"Are you getting the error about gnome-do every time you try to update/upgrade the system?" -- Yes, I am.
| Peter Belew (peterbe) wrote : | #13 |
Actually, that's with
apt-get dist-upgrade
| RedSingularity (redsingularity) wrote : | #14 |
Gnome-do.desktop should still me "moved" so run this to make sure:
ls /usr/share/
And paste the output of that.
| Peter Belew (peterbe) wrote : | #15 |
ls /usr/share/
ls: cannot access /usr/share/
Still renamed to gnome-do-test, which contains
cat gnome-do-test

BTW the third-from-last line appears to be in a Turkic language - am I right?
| RedSingularity (redsingularity) wrote : | #16 |
Yes it looks like another language. Lets do this:
1) sudo apt-get autoremove --purge gnome-do
then run this command to search for residual files:
2) sudo find / -name *gnome-do*
Paste the output to your next post.
(Don't reinstall gnome-do until we remove some of the residual files)

Ok, now run the following:
sudo rm -r /usr/share/
sudo rm -r /usr/bin/
sudo rm -r /usr/bin/
sudo rm -r /usr/share/
sudo rm -r /usr/share/
Then reinstall the application and see if the problem persists.
