[Bug 1105137] Re: Debconf prompt on upgrade from quantal to raring

[Andrew Starr-Bochicchio]

I've just reproduced this doing upgrade testing in a VM. I started with
a clean 12.10 desktop install fully updated. I then upgraded to raring
with 'update-manager -d -c'

During the upgrade I get a debconf prompt asking to restart rsync, cups,
cron, and atd.

Title:
  Debconf prompt on upgrade from quantal to raring

Status in “eglibc” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I used update manager to upgrade from Quantal to Raring during the
  raring development cycle. I was prompted - twice - with a debconf
  dialog asking about services to restart for the libc upgrade. Most end
  users will have no idea what to do; the prompt should be preseeded or
  otherwise hidden. Clicking the forward button on the dialog resulted
  in the same dialog popping up a second time. After I clicked forward
  again, the dialog went away for good.

  See attached screenshot for the dialog in question.
