[Bug 2125602] [NEW] do-release-upgrade: Foreign Packages Installed

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Upon running `sudo do-release-upgrade -d` (after`sudo apt update` and
`sudo apt upgrade`) in a fresh install of Ubuntu 25.04 ARM in UTM (VM
software), keeping all defaults, I got the following output:

```
Foreign Packages Installed

The following unofficial packages are currently installed:

gir1.2-javascriptcoregtk-4.1Installed from: unknown origin
gir1.2-webkit2-4.1.......Installed from: unknown origin
libjavascriptcoregtk-4.1-0Installed from: unknown origin
libjavascriptcoregtk-6.0-1Installed from: unknown origin
libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0......Installed from: unknown origin
libwebkitgtk-6.0-4.......Installed from: unknown origin

It is recommended to install supported versions from the Ubuntu
archive, and try the upgrade again.

Do you want to continue the upgrade anyways?

Continue [yN]
