Title:
  gnome-session removed during partial upgrade to Precise Beta1

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  During a partial upgrade to Precise Beta1 last night, update-manager
  removed a large number of packages, including gnome-session. The
  machine would boot to the login screen, but logging in (with the
  correct password) would simply return to the login screen again with
  no error message. The login screen also gave no options for different
  sessions (Ubuntu, Ubuntu 2D, etc).
