[Bug 940196] Re: cdromupgrade from Oneiric to Precise no network failed: The package 'unity-2d-places' is marked for removal but it's in the removal blacklist

[Steve Langasek]

unity-2d-places has been dropped as a dependency of unity-2d in the
latest upload, and as a result is no longer on the CD.  Looks like
update-manager uses regular expressions for its blacklist, so the
"unity-2d" package name needs to be anchored so it only matches the
toplevel package... not whatever sub-packages happen to be installed
before upgrade.  Barry, could you take a look at this?
