In that process, I get the following message : ------ Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'compiz-core' Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'compiz-gnome' Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'compiz-core' Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'compiz-gnome' Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'compiz-core' Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'compiz-gnome' Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'compiz-core' Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'compiz-gnome' You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems Checking package manager Reading package lists...

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 ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal. ------ This problem is caused by apt, according to https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=759099 , this was solved in apt 1.0.7. The version installed with trusty-updates is 1.0.1ubuntu2.10, so without the fix. Is there a way to upgrade to fix this ? I would really like to convert this machine into a non LTS machine, without having a reinstall which would make my users unhappy. I'm trying to update a 14.04.3 LTS machine to 15.04.
