Cannot upgrade from 10.04.4 lucid to next LTS using terminal or synaptic

it is my first time here in this forum. I am trying to upgrade this ubuntu system to the next LTS version and i am encountering some problems in order to upgrade.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6: Depends: libc-bin (= 2.11.1-0ubuntu7.10) but 2.15-0ubuntu10.2 is installed
Recommends: libc6-i686
python-louis: Depends: liblouis0 (> = 1.7.0-2) but it is not installable

ubuntu-minimal: Depends: libc6-i686
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver :: Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
E: Unable to correct dependencies


If i try it with synaptic, the tool gives me 3 broken packages:



libc6, python-louis and ubuntu-minimal.



I cannot upgrade this packages using synaptic or doing a apt-get -f install and in the meanwhile i cannot upgrade the system. I cannot upgrade the system with a fresh install.
