Uh, completely unnecessary to put such a log into OOo attachment, plain
ascii is far preferred and for such a tiny snippet having it inline
would've been best, and preferably real copy-paste of the whole thing,
"apt-get ignore-missing upgrade" is not a valid command (missing -- before
the option)
As for the problem itself: --ignore-missing *tries* to deal with missing
packages but there are no guarantees that it succeeds in doing so if
important bits of dependency chains are missing.
