[Bug 1901338] Re: upgrade to latest stable release fails

[Don Harter]

This should be closed.  I found out that I had packages from a ppa
repository which were duplicates of standard ubuntu packages. So this
bug report should not even been submited.

Useful commands to solve this problem were:
for name in `dpkg -l | gawk -e '{print $2}'` ; do apt-cache policy $name; done | grep ppa 
ppa-purge ppa:ubuntugis
