Hi Martin, if no one else is seeing this, and you can't reproduce it,
it is entirely possible that I'd added a symlink at some point to test
something and failed to remove it. If that looks likely from the
current state, then I'm happy to remove whichever symlink is incorrect
and update my system again :) Sorry for possibly having wasted your
time :/

Bug description:
  While upgrading another laptop, during the process I got a dialog
  saying:

  http://paste.ubuntu.com/693682/

  After the upgrade finished I saw in the update manager terminal
  window: Exception during pm.DoInstall(): E:Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg
  returned an error code (1), and it did automatically prompt me to
  create a bug, but I had to reboot to finish the upgrade get a network
  connection.

  After the reboot, it appears to be installed according to apt-cache:
