1 package can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see it.

(base) user@computer:~$ apt list --upgradeable -a
Listing... Done
libodbc1/bionic 2.3.7 amd64 [upgradable from: 2.3.4-1.1ubuntu3]
libodbc1/bionic,now 2.3.4-1.1ubuntu3 amd64 [installed,upgradable to: 2.3.7]

It seems like I can't upgrade because libodbc1 isn't being upgraded?

As well; I can't upgrade with the GUI software updater. The "Upgrade..." button doesn't seem to do anything.

Thanks.

*libodbc1 was held back:

The following packages have been kept back:
  libodbc1
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.

Final edit

The following command worked for my specific issue:

sudo apt-install libodbc1

This permitted the upgrade to proceed.

Thank you!

  • Then try sudo apt full-upgrade ,,, that might solve the problem. Read the output carefully before answering Yes as the command might remove packages if needed. – Soren A Sep 02 '21 at 05:31
  • Yes! Installing libodbc1 with:

    sudo apt-install libodbc1

    worked!

    Please also see another post I will be making since I then borked the upgrade -.-
