Can't Upgrade Ubuntu 18.04 To 20.04 Because Of "Please Install All Available Updates For Your Release Before Upgrading" Error


Answer :

sequence from 18.04 to 20.04

sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade sudo apt dist-upgrade sudo apt autoremove sudo do-release-upgrade -d -f DistUpgradeViewGtk3

Follow onscreen instruction. Good luck!


I was also experiencing the same issue. However, when I ran the usual upgrade commands (sudo apt upgrade, sudo apt full-upgrade, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade), they were all reporting that there are no packages to upgrade and no held packages:

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

In the end, I copied the file /usr/bin/do-release-upgrade to my home and modified it as follows:

for pkg in upgradable:     if 'Phased-Update-Percentage' in pkg.candidate.record:     # P-U-P does not exist if it is fully phased     continue     else:     install_count += 1     print(pkg)   # <--- ADD THIS LINE     # one upgradeable package is enough to stop the dist-upgrade     # break      # <--- COMMENT THIS LINE OUT

This change will print the names of all packages that need to be upgraded.

When I ran sudo ~/do-release-upgrade, a package from an external repository was printed that had an update available, but the newer version depended on a library that was not available, which caused the package to not upgrade.

Still not sure why it wasn't reported as not upgraded by apt upgrade.


The problem is your repo is not updated, so you need to remove these five repos: colord gimagereader python-sane sane simple-scan

Do sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:<ppa to remove> or edit /etc/apt/sources.list to remove all of these repos.

Then you can run update-manager

Converting A String To Int In Groovy

Answer : Use the toInteger() method to convert a String to an Integer , e.g. int value = "99".toInteger() An alternative, which avoids using a deprecated method (see below) is int value = "66" as Integer If you need to check whether the String can be converted before performing the conversion, use String number = "66" if (number.isInteger()) { int value = number as Integer } Deprecation Update In recent versions of Groovy one of the toInteger() methods has been deprecated. The following is taken from org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.StringGroovyMethods in Groovy 2.4.4 /** * Parse a CharSequence into an Integer * * @param self a CharSequence * @return an Integer * @since 1.8.2 */ public static Integer toInteger(CharSequence self) { return Integer.valueOf(self.toString().trim()); } /** * @deprecated Use the CharSequence version * @see #toInteger(CharSequence) */ @Deprecated public static Integer toInteger(String self) { return toInteg

"Cannot Create Cache Directory /home//.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org/, Or Directory Is Not Writable. Proceeding Without Cache"

Answer : if anyone pass through here, this is shorter solution: sudo chown -R $USER $HOME/.composer it seems to me the group information is missing in your command sudo chown -R <user> /home/<user>/.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org Shoud be sudo chown -R <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org But to avoid other permission issues, I would rather advise: sudo chown -R <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer/cache (you'll need access to other folders in there) and sudo chown <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer To make sure your user has permissions enough on the global composer folder. Mind the missing recursion so the user don't own keys created by root. If you need to find out the group: groups <user>

Android How Can I Convert A String To A Editable

Answer : As you probably found out, Editable is an interface so you cannot call new Editable() . However an Editable is nothing more than a String with Spannables, so use SpannableStringBuilder: Editable editable = new SpannableStringBuilder("Pass a string here"); If you only want to change the Spannables, never the text itself, you can use a basic SpannableString. Use Editable.Factory.getInstance().newEditable(str) From the android documentation: Returns a new SpannedStringBuilder from the specified CharSequence. You can override this to provide a different kind of Spanned.
