Bug Description

Invoking update-manager results in the following message.

"An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.

Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:
E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages."

wajig update && wajig upgrade && wajig distupgrade also similarly fails but with the following:

SystemError: E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

 I don't have any pinned packages, if that is what was meant in the error message.
