[Bug 1438865] Re: Using dpkg in Recovery Menu fails

[Martin Pitt]

This happens when "screen" is installed, then the release upgrader trips
over 'Unable to open "screenrc"' and fails.

** Package changed: friendly-recovery (Ubuntu) => ubuntu-release-
upgrader (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Triaged

** Summary changed:

- Using dpkg in Recovery Menu fails
+ Using dpkg in Recovery Menu fails if screen is installed
