Packages held back from default sources when trying to keep Pengwin up-to-date. #778
Comments
Have you tried:
sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade
|
When I try to do that, it results this:
So dist-upgrade doesn't solve this problem. |
At this time, I recommend you back up your distro with: wsl --export wlinux pengwin_backup.tar.gz Then comment out the testing repo:
And run this command:
|
This seems to have cleared situation:
I have no recollection of adding Debian testing repository in my sources, but removing that cleared things out nicely. Thank you for checking this out & giving a helping hand. I might have learned new trick in this process as well. :) |
It should not try to download packages from testing because it has the lowest priority. I'll remove it from the sources. Thanks a lot for reporting |
Describe the bug
I have bunch of packages in my Pengwin installation that I can not seem to get upgraded. I have had this situation already months, and and looks like it doesn't resolve itself just by waiting.
Originally I had these packages unable to upgrade:
Today I though started to remove those one by one, and I was able to reduce that list down to this:
Expected behavior
I expect base packages to upgrade smoothly.
Additional context
If I try to upgrade those packages, I get following:
If I try to remove any of packages in that list, I get following:
My sources.lists:
This computer has been installed in February 2023, so it isn't that long living Pengwin installation. I have another computer which is installed in July 2023, and it doesn't have this kind of package installation problem.

.What other troubleshooting have you attempted?
I have tried all searching the web for general apt usage help in this kind of situation, and what kind of commands there are to solve this, but nothing has helped this far.
Pengwin Version
Run
grep "PENGWIN_VERSION" /etc/os-release
in Pengwin.Insert here: PENGWIN_VERSION="23.07.1"
WSL general info
Run
wslsys
in Pengwin.Insert here:
Happy to provide additional information and try out things. I know this could be solved by wiping whole WSL installation and starting from scratch, but I'm not fan of doing things like that, especially if I lose data inside my WSL home directory. So many coding repos there that it takes long time to refetch & reconfigure them all.
