[Bug 1182484] Re: can't install xubuntu-desktop

[Michael Probst]

This was so long ago that I am partially guessing here, but, if I 
remember correctly I believe that update manager was set to allow 
automatic upgrade when a new version is released and when it tried to do 
so it ran into the bug which was automatically reported.  I was 
oblivious to this for a while but eventually caught on.  As I am on the 
LTS version and will probably only upgrade when the next LTS is released 
I eventually disabled the automatic upgrade option in the update manager 
and have had no more issues.  It updates the system now instead of 
trying to upgrade to a newer version. Thanks...

Title:
  can't install xubuntu-desktop

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Update manager fails while fetching new packages -- specifically
  stating it is unable to install the xubuntu-desktop package.  After
  doing bug report the upgrade process wants to continue with the
  upgrade.  Not really comfortable with an upgrade process continuing
  without a critical package.
