Comment 7 for bug 1749831

I just ran into the identical problem. Upgraded normally this morning, no problems. Went to upgrade again tonight, and got the dialog offering me a partial upgrade due to problems. When I tried instead on the command line, it claimed the same set of packages would be help back (i.e., compiz related packages). I did not let it proceed, because I do not understand why they are being held back nor what state I would be left in after an upgrade. Any advice?
