Title:
  update-manager does not update due to partial upgrade

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

Bug description:
  I am running ubuntu 12.04 LTS daily build. I ran the upgrade today and
  it asked me to do a partial upgrade. However when I start the partial
  upgrade it presents the following message.

  Can't guess meta-package

  Your system does not contain a ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop or edubuntu-desktop package and it was not possible to detect which version of Ubuntu you are running.
   Please install one of the packages above first using synaptic or apt-get before proceeding.

  
  I tried installing ubuntu-desktop however apt-get says it is already installed.
