Title:
  Upgrading IBM 300PL from 9.10 to 10.04 LTS fails

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

Bug description:
  I am trying to upgrade Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04.3 LTS via web-download.  It fails
  with the error message below.  I really wanted to upgrade to 12.04, but when
  that failed, I tried previous version to see when the problem originated.
  I was also unable to upgrade using a CD to these versions: 11.10 and 12.04.
  Although Ubuntu can be started from the CD in either case, the screen
  resolution is very coarse and very low.  The buttons needed to go through the
  installation procedure are not visible is either case.  FYI, 9.10 works very
  well.

  Here is the Ubuntu 10.04 LTS error message:
  ______________________________________________________________________________

  Could not calculate the upgrade

  An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade:
  Can not mark 'ubuntu-desktop' for upgrade

   This can be caused by:
   * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
   * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
   * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu

  If none of this applies, then please report this bug against the
  'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in
  the bug report.
