[Bug 1756949] Re: /usr/bin/unattended-upgrade:apt_pkg.Error:/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade at 1917:main:mark_upgrade:mark_install

[Balint Reczey]

This seems to be an apt issue:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 1917, in <module>
    sys.exit(main(options))
  File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 1668, in main
    pkg.mark_upgrade(from_user=not pkg.is_auto_installed)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt/package.py", line 1316, in mark_upgrade
    self.mark_install(from_user=from_user)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt/package.py", line 1309, in mark_install
    fixer.resolve(True)
apt_pkg.Error: E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

Unattended-upgrades may catch the exception, but I think it should be
fixed in apt.
