Title:
  update-manager gets confused by packages in "in" state

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

Bug description:
  On precise, if you get packages in dpkg "in" state (to install, not
  installed), update-manager will only test that package as to install
  and ignore all the other options:

  easy steps to reproduce:
  - install a -dbgsym package which has a conflict -dbg in the normal archive (i.e nautilus-dbgsym)
  - wget the -dbg
  - sudo dpkg -i dbg.deb (which conflicts)
  - sudo apt-get -f install

  you get in the broken state
