Update Manager says 'Not all updates can be installed'

I have 11.04 installed with Gnome 3 and everything was working fine until I tried to run the update manager. Now I can't update any of my packages. A similar question was posted awhile ago but no solution was presented

Edit

Output from sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Edit 3

After installing each of the packages (via sudo apt-get install [package] ) that were held back, everything seems to be normal. So why did I have to reinstall everything? I'm assuming it has todo with gnome3 since every package was installed via their repo.


I have found sometimes the package manager cannot cope with the extent of the changes a particular PPA is requesting to be updated.

For example, the manager starts processing a file, but gives up claiming wrong dependencies - without further analysing that a later package/or packages in the PPA would have fulfilled that dependency.

In these cases, you should do the following - run in a terminal

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

This will give you a list of packages that it cannot install.

Go through the list one by one trying to install it i.e.

sudo apt-get install <package name>

Once you have done this, repeat the update/upgrade commands and repeat the remainder of the packages/new packages it is requesting. You may have to do this a few times until all the packages are installed.
