Title:
  Can't use c-n-r-gtk to initiate Quantal -> Raring update

  Triaged
Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” source package in Quantal:
  New

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  After Ubuntu 13.04 is released, users on 12.10 will occasionally be prompted by update-notifier about the new release.  If they click on the "Upgrade Now" button in the dialog that appears, nothing will happen.

  They can still upgrade via update-manager, but still.  That's a pile
  of fail on something users will expect to work.

  This is a regression from 12.04.

  [Test Case]
  0) Be on Ubuntu 12.10
  1) Run /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release-gtk -d
  2) Click the "Upgrade Now" button

  Notice how nothing happens.

  [Regression Potential]
  Very low, since it doesn't work at all now.  The changes are small and isolated to this one binary.

  [Original Report]
  I have submitted an apport report for this already, but I think it is better to submit it manually too.
  I have tried to run
  /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release-gtk -d
  just to see what happens next. It has found the Raring release, I have pushed the "Yes, Upgrade Now!" button, and got this:

  $ /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release-gtk -d
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release-gtk", line 132, in on_button_upgrade_now_clicked
      _("Downloading the release upgrade tool"))
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/DistUpgrade/GtkProgress.py", line 35, in __init__
      self.widgets = SimpleGtkbuilderApp(uifile, "ubuntu-release-upgrader")
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/DistUpgrade/SimpleGtk3builderApp.py", line 32, in __init__
      self.builder.add_from_file(path)
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/types.py", line 47, in function
      return info.invoke(*args, **kwargs)
  gi._glib.GError: Nem sikerült megnyitni a(z) „/usr/share/ubuntu-release-upgradergtkbuilder/AcquireProgress.ui” fájlt: Nincs ilyen fájl vagy könyvtár

  (gi._glib.GError: Can't open the ...ui file: No such file or
  directory)

  That would be easy to fix, I tried to do the following to DistUpgrade/GtkProgress.py :
  -        uifile = datadir + "gtkbuilder/AcquireProgress.ui"
  +        uifile = datadir + "/gtkbuilder/AcquireProgress.ui"

  But now a brand new crash happens, and I'm stuck:

  $ /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release-gtk -d
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release-gtk", line 132, in on_button_upgrade_now_clicked

    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/DistUpgrade/GtkProgress.py", line 48, in __init__
      self.window_fetch.set_transient_for(parent)
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/types.py", line 47, in function
      return info.invoke(*args, **kwargs)
  TypeError: argument parent: Expected Gtk.Window, but got __main__.CheckNewReleaseGtk
