[Bug 855793] Re: Kubuntu 11.10 beta 1: Error upgrading using muon

upgrading after a first install?

I installed Kubuntu 11.10 release four different ways (using both alt
installer and Live CD) and this error happened to me every time on each
different fresh installation. It also happens if you try it in the Live
CD. So it appears it happens every time.

Title:
  Kubuntu 11.10 beta 1: Error upgrading using muon

Status in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “dpkg” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “kde-workspace” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After installing Kubuntu 11.10 beta 1 in Virtualbox 4.1.2 (during
  installation I did not select to get updates) I tried to do a full
  update using muon package manager.

  The download of packages completed successfully but the installation
  process stuck on 20 %  on kate package update.

  After waiting for a long time ( about 1 hour), I killed the update
  process.

  Then, I restarted the virtual machine but my system is not functional
  (e.g no network, no sound, no way to perform updates).
