Hi there, I am not sure if this issue appears somewere else. I updated my Proxmox from 6.4 to 7.1 today. Worked fine but I do get the following error
root@pve2:/etc/apt/sources.list.d# apt upgrade
Reading package lists... Done

The following packages have been kept back:
libpython2-stdlib libpython2.7-minimal libpython2.7-stdlib python-six python2 python2-minimal python2.7 python2.7-minimal python3-six
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 9 not upgraded.

There is no way to solve this. All other source list are disabled except the source.list as follows:

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian bullseye-updates main contrib

# NOT recommended for production use
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye pve-no-subscription

deb [arch=amd64] http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye pve-no-subscription

Is there any idea how to get rid of that packages?
Thanks

Olaf

Did you follow the Proxmox VE 6 to 7 upgrade guide for this [1]? The upgrade seems to have been successful, however, I just want to ensure you followed the guide because the reason for your current issues is the use of apt upgrade instead of apt dist-upgrade.

You should always use apt dist-upgrade to update a Proxmox system for this exact reason. apt upgrade will not automatically remove old packages and will skip upgrades in case an old package prevents it from doing so. apt dist-upgrade (or equally, apt full-upgrade) will automatically remove old, conflicting packages in order to perform an upgrade, if necessary.

Could you run the following command and see if it resolves the issue?
Code: 
apt update && apt dist-upgrade

[1] https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_6.x_to_7.0
 
this was exactly the problem - I used apt-get upgrade.

apt update && apt dist-upgrade:

Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y

Shall I remove proxmox and reinstall it?

I wouldn't do this in case the system gets really messed up, unless you mean a fresh install, in which case, whatever you prefer.

If you'd rather not perform a fresh install, could you post:
  • All of your apt sources: cat /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
  • The output of: apt update
  • The output of: apt dist-upgrade --dry-run

Is this node part of a cluster? Is Ceph currently in use? I believe it's old Ceph packages (for which no repository is configured) that are keeping the update back.

If Ceph isn't in use, you can simply just add a newer repository, then run apt update and upgrade. Following the upgrade, you can uninstall Ceph in that case:
Code: 
# Add ceph repo
echo "deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/ceph-octopus bullseye main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ceph.list

# update
apt update

# test upgrade
apt dist-upgrade --dry-run

# if all good, upgrade
apt dist-upgrade

If Ceph is in use, the process might be more difficult.

As an aside, you also have the pve-no-subscription repository configured twice.
