Bug description:
The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem
regarding ubuntu-release-upgrader. This problem was most recently
seen with version 1:0.190.7, the problem page at
https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/95e23eef1d67b997e47197c477a3149fa3b97b7b
contains more details.
Impact:
Users of Ubuntu 12.10 (and 13.04) are unable to upgrade to Ubuntu 13.04 (or 13.10) unless they manually install libgksu2-0 (or a package that depends on it).
Test Case:
1) Install Ubuntu 12.10 (or 13.04)
2) Run /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release-gtk (with -d for 13.04)
3) Click upgrade now
4) Observe a crash
With the version of ubuntu-release-upgrader from -proposed it will not
crash
Regression Potential:
None as we are just readding a removed dependency for ubuntu-release-upgrader.
Development Fix:
The plan to fix this in the development release is to move to policykit instead of using gksu.
