I think it's going to be hard to get anywhere with that without figuring
out which package was the problem. If you don't know which package to
report a bug against, you are kind of stuck reporting the problem.
You could list up which packages it wants to upgrade if you do apt-get
update / apt-get upgrade now but don't let it go through with the
upgrade, just list out the packages it wants to upgrade and the ones it
wants to install. Someone on here can probably call out which package is
the likely culprit.
