Updates withheld

[pete284]

I regularly run Install Updates, I recently noticed that the script was saying 19 updates withheld. I noticed that the new Lite Cleaner was not being installed either.

Anyway I left it but recently had a major error with LibreOffice  when it refused to save any documents giving the error: libre office 4.2.6.2 write error error writing file. This was the same on all 3 profiles on the machine and I even removed all the libreoffice profiles and created new ones to see if this fixed it but it did not.

I tried the install updates but again  it said it was holding back the libreoffice updates (amongst others).

I then booted  up Synaptic which confirmed I had 19 updates of 340mb in size. I applied these updates which installed both lite cleaner and updated LibreOffice to version 4.3.2.2. I ran the lite cleaner after the updates and all is back to normal now where I have the ability to save LibreOffice files.

I was wondering why the install updates script was holding back these updates (which obviously were causing issues on this machine)
