[Bug 1178245] Re: missed python-apt dependency

[Brian Murray]

While the release upgrade process does run using python2 so ubuntu-
release-upgrader should depend on python-apt, I'm curious as to what
type of install people performed where python-apt was not installed.  It
is included with almost every task.  Thanks!

  Need to install python-apt manually with aptitude to work.
