After upgrading to 12.04 Gnome Classic amd64, several updates are listed in update manager, but do not install. In my x86 upgrade this is not happening. The amd64 upgrade is a disaster with many things not working, but the x86 works fine.

The items are: ia32-libs-multiarch:i386; banshee-extension-soundmenu; banshee

When applications do not update it signifies that their dependencies are broken or not installed.
I do not know about ia32-libs-multiarch:i386 .
and i think banshee-extension-soundmenu; banshee do not install (assuming you are installing them from a ppa) bcoz they might be having broken dependencies

  • I went to synaptic, apparently the multiarch lib was to repalce it's old style not multiarch, which had not been done. when I deleted the old lib the update was successful. I had to delete google-earth and picasa but I will re-install them if I need them. I don't use banshee so it went to read-only memory. – keepitsimpleengineer May 17 '12 at 22:58
  • Oops ⋯ banshee went to write-only-memory. – keepitsimpleengineer May 22 '12 at 22:36

this fixed the problem for me:

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs ia32-libs-multiarch

Thanks to Steve Langasek see his bug
