[Bug 1073642] Re: Cannot upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10

[Brian Murray]

Reviewing the files from your upgrade attempt you seem to have enabled
the xorg-edgers-ppa.  This will prevent the upgrade as that PPA contains
different versions of packages essential to Ubuntu.  The page,
https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa, contains details on to
how to revert to the official Xorg packages.

** Package changed: update-manager (Ubuntu) => ubuntu-release-upgrader
(Ubuntu)

** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid

** Tags added: ppa xorg-edgers-ppa
