[Bug 941691] Re: update manager won't work, sudo atpf getinstall-f wont work, can't install or remove anything

[Colin Watson]

Please run 'apport-collect 941691' to attach more information to this
bug.  (You originally filed this against the software that installs the
basic OS, and the bug-reporting software attached suitable information
for such bugs, but that software isn't the same as update-manager.
apport-collect should sort things out.)

** Package changed: ubiquity (Ubuntu) => update-manager (Ubuntu)
