Hello guys!

A couple of months ago we've updated our proxmox cluster to version 6. Now we are preparing to upgrade ceph to nautilus, but we got apt update errors on some hosts:
Code:
~]# apt dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Error!
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libpve-guest-common-perl : Breaks: pve-container (< 3.1-4) but 3.0-19 is to be installed
                            Breaks: qemu-server (< 6.1-19) but 6.1-5 is to be installed

E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

I've checked all /etc/apt/sources* files, there no mentions about stretch.

Hope on your experience,

Hi,

I've checked all /etc/apt/sources* files, there no mentions about stretch.

What about the corosync-3 upgrade repo (drop it), please post all configured apt sources here and also the unmodified output of apt update
 
According to internal security rules, I substituted original private repo names:

Code:
~ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.ru.debian.org/debian buster main contrib
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-no-subscription
deb http://security.debian.org buster/updates main contrib

~ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
deb [trusted=yes] https://my-private-repo/debian/3rd buster main
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/ceph-luminous stretch main
deb [trusted=yes] https://my-private-repo2/mirror-deb/osquery/ deb main
deb http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/4.2/debian buster main
deb-src http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/4.2/debian buster main

10 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them.


Obviously you can suspect my private repos as a root cause, but when I disabled proxmox repo, apt dist-upgrade wouldn't retrieve the error.

My prime suspect are the various "stretch" occurrences ;) Second one are the extra repos, whatever is on them can block stuff, so we cannot really help with those there..
 
my fault, I wanted to replace stretch on buster during ceph upgrade. This was the reason, why I've got this error.
