Update gives error Unit packagekit.service is masked

I'm trying to update to jammy and get that error. In full, it is

GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.systemd1.UnitMasked: Unit packagekit.service is masked.

That is odd.

Try:

Code:

sudo systemctl unmask packagekit.service sudo systemctl start packagekit.service

and see if this still happens

You may need to reboot.

No idea why packagekit would be masked. Discover uses it, for example.
