[Bug 1203534] Re: update-manager crashes when trying to upgrade to 13.10

[Brian Murray]

Does this only happen when using 'sudo update-manager -d' with the
nvidia driver, or does it also happen with just 'update-manager -d' and
the nvidia driver?

** Description changed:

- The update manager segfaults when trying to upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10.
+ The update manager segfaults when trying to upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10
+ when using the nvidia driver.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  1. $ sudo update-manager -c -d
  2. Press the 'Upgrade...' button.
  
  Expected result:
  Another window appears asking to confirm the upgrade.
  
  Actual result:
  After message on checking the availability of a new Ubuntu release I get a Segmentation fault (core dumped) message.
