Hi!
My system tells me (after sudo apt upgrade):
Die folgenden Pakete sind zurückgehalten worden:
libnss-systemd libpam-systemd libsystemd0 libsystemd0:i386 libudev1
libudev1:i386 systemd systemd-oomd systemd-sysv systemd-timesyncd udev
0 aktualisiert, 0 neu installiert, 0 zu entfernen und 11 nicht aktualisiert.
Should I install these anyway with another command, or wait until it gets done by the apt upgrade command eventually (although I have no idea things work like this, I am an amateur...)?
Thanks for all the efforts and help people!
This means that those packages are kept at their current versions to avoid dependency problems with some other program that you have installed, which also wants to use those packages but at a higher version. It's not a pressing issue but something that you'd like to sort out eventually.
Thanks for taking care!
I install stuff regularly, but I dont think since the last apt upgrade. Could be though.
I started the habit to do that quite often (maybe every 1-3 days), gives me the feeling of using Linux "right".
I still dont understand much, but I am a happy Zorin user (coming from 25 years on Windows...) for about a year now!
That's perfectly fine, I try to also run the updates every few days or so. Turns out, this is an update that introduces a breaking change to one of the core dependencies at is current version:
The current installed version is the one that ends with "ubuntu3.16". From the screenshot, you can see I've updated it but it shows a breaking change with systemd lower than 3.17. What this means basically is that you have to update all these packages at once.
For now, though, I'd suggest waiting a little while to see if this will resolve itself on a future update. Otherwise, you can install them manually by simply reinstalling these packages. I've done it and it works, but I haven't tested it to see if something breaks.
When You wait a couple Days, the Updates will be normally updateable. So, You don't have to Care much. Hold back Packages are not rare; that happens from time to Time; I have even see them in the Software Updater.
