We are just now experiencing this issue with upgrades from the official jenkins-ci.org repo. After upgrading one of our staging environments, we moved on our production server, only to find out the jenkins package has been kept back.
root@deployer-dev:~# apt-get update ### ### previous/unrelated lines removed for brevity ### Ign http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org binary/ InRelease Hit http://ppa.launchpad.net trusty InRelease Hit http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org binary/ Release.gpg Hit http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org binary/ Release Hit http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org binary/ Packages Ign http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org binary/ Translation-en_US Ign http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org binary/ Translation-en Reading package lists... Done root@deployer-dev:~# apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done The following packages have been kept back: jenkins 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
We've tried several apt-get commands to force the upgrade
$ apt-get dist-upgrade $ apt-get dist-upgrade jenkins $ apt-get upgrade jenkins $ apt-get install --reinstall jenkins
... but the package just won't install. We know that it can be manually and easily be upgraded, but we'd rather use the standard apt-get upgrade process we've always used in the past for consistency.
The new version is listed, but it won't upgrade.
root@deployer-dev:~# apt-cache policy jenkins jenkins: Installed: 2.52 Candidate: 2.55 Version table: 2.55 0 500 http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/debian/ binary/ Packages *** 2.52 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
We've also managed to upgrade all other linux packages on this machine, except Jenkins. Some more info about this particular server:
$ root@deployer-dev:~# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
Release: 14.04
Codename: trusty
$ uname -a
Linux deployer-dev 3.13.0-116-generic #163-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 31 14:13:22 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Oddly enough, one of our staging environments is running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, where the upgrade worked normally.
Would it be possible to provide any clues to resolve this?
Kind regards.

added a comment - Also facing the same issue on 14.04 LTS. This issue is due to the new Java 8 dependency. If you download the jenkins_2.56_all.deb package from https://pkg.jenkins.io/debian/ and open it with the Ubuntu Software Center it will complain that it cannot satisfy the the following dependency: default-jre-headless|java8-runtime-headless
Neither the default-jre-headless or java8-runtime-headless packages are available for Ubuntu 14.04. I think there is no official Java 8 available for 14.04 at all...
Update: If you install Java 8 using the instructions from http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/install-oracle-java-8-in-ubuntu-via-ppa.html the dependencies will be satisfied.

or use --nodeps flag with apt-get and install the JDK manually from Oracle which is certified for Ubuntu 14.04
I am facing exactly the same issue.
