On one of my Trisquel 11 systems, "sudo apt update" says there is one package available, "sudo apt upgrade" says the package is the trisquel metapackage but it is kept back. "apt -s full-upgrade" says the same (do it won't install it). It also says that "The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: ayatana-settings group-service libgroup-service1 mate-user-admin".

I see that the currently installed version of the trisquel metapackage is 11.0-24, while the available version is 11.0-25 which has added ayatana-settings and mate-user-admin as required (and the two others are required by mate-user-admin).

How can I install the latest version of the trisquel metapackage?

I fixed it with aptitude:
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude dist-upgrade

Accept that some packages will be removed.

It worked, thanks!

I need to remember that aptitude can do things that apt can't.
