<br>><br>> Ayo<br><br>It sounds like one of the deb-src lines is incorrect.<br><br>1) How are you performing the upgrade?<br>(eg aptitude, do-release-upgrade or update-manager)<br><br>2) Could you post the contents of the file /etc/apt/sources.list ?

<br>A person with ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed.
