[Bug 1064046] [NEW] Upgrade from 10.04 to 12.04 results in error, cannot upgrade.

[Terran Novack]

Public bug reported:

I clicked "Upgrade" to upgradce to Ubuntu 12.04, (From 10.04), and it
went through, but during the "Setting new software channels" part, I get
an error that says "Could not calucalate the upgrade".

E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be
caused by held paackages.

This can be caused by:
 * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
 * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
 * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu

If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the command
'ubuntu-bug update-manager' in a terminal.

I followed the instructions, and put the command into the terminal,
which lead me to this. Thank you for everything!
