Title:
  update manager: file missing after package update

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Yesterday for a reason I don't understand the update manager would not
  update my system saying that it could not get through to the
  repository. I switched to a different mirror and update manager said a
  package update was available (from 10.04 to 10.10).

  I updated last night and then went to bed. This evening when I got in
  from work I opened the computer and opened the update manager to see
  if the package update had resolved the problem. The update manager
  told me another update was available from 10.10 to 11.04. In the
  process of updating this error message came up.

  "Invalid Package Information
  After your package information was updated the essential package 'ubuntu-minimal' can not be found anymore. This indicates a serious error, please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bug report."

  Usually I would include what system I'm using but the update didn't
  seem to continue and the update manager is still saying 'New Ubuntu
  release 11.04 is available'. On the other hand Systems>About Ubuntu
  tells me I'm using 11.04 already.

  I know I'm supposed to provide the details of /var/log/dist-upgrade/
  but I'm not sure how to do this.

  I'm now confused and in a it of a tangle. I would like to update to
  11.04 (or finish updating) and resolve the problems with Update
  Manager. Any help would be much appreciated!
