Upgrading via Magento Connect can be tricky and error messages cryptic.

The reason being that specific modules rely on other modules by a specific version. In the Connect package if the required module version is not installed or available for install then the error you're now receiving is triggered from within Mage_Connect_Command_Install.

The following are some methods to troubleshooting:

• Disable all caching - including memcached, APC
• Ensure that var/package is writable by the web user, delete current contents if necessary and errors persist.
• Run the magento-check.php compatibility script and ensure that all required PHP extensions are installed, give the web user ownership (chown) of the entire web root (required for upgrade via Connect).
• Reset all file permissions for your install
• Increase your memory_limit for PHP to the minimum required 256MB RAM (preferably 512MB)

If all else fails, you can always download the latest version and cp -R (Linux) or ditto the files over top of your install to upgrade.
