No, running dist-upgrade doesn't solve the problem.

The output from dist-upgrade was:

The following packages have been kept back:
  libboost-date-time-dev libboost-dev libboost-iostreams-dev
  libboost-regex-dev

plus there were a few packages that _were_ installed or upgraded. I lost the output from dist-upgrade, but if I run it again it shows the part mentioned above, plus 0 upgraded / 0 installed etc.

The 4 packages that were "kept back" actually are the ones that show up unchecked and uncheckable in Update Manager.
I'm not sure whether there were more of them before I ran dist-upgrade.
