[Bug 898482] [NEW] Lucid to Precise upgrade fails

[Erick Brunzell]

Public bug reported:

Just tried a Lucid to Precise Alpha 1 dist-upgrade by running "update-
manager -d -c" and the Update Manager shows 12.04 available but clicking
on Upgrade just causes the terminal to output:

can't load DistUpgradeViewGtk (Unknown internal child: selection)
can't load DistUpgradeViewGtk3 (No module named gi)
can't load DistUpgradeViewKDE (coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, tuple found)
Must be connected to a terminal.

I had not thought of even trying this earlier as I'd doubt any early
testers would typically do that but I thought I should report it all the
same.

** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu)
