  In Progress
Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Vivid:

Bug description:
  Just testing Ubuntu GNOME Utopic -> Vivid release upgrades and towards
  the end of the upgrade a failure warning is displayed:

  Could not install the upgrades

  The upgrade has aborted. Your system could be in an unusable state. A
  recovery will run now (dpkg --configure -a).

  The terminal displays this:

  lance at lance-desktop:~$ update-manager -d -c
  Checking for a new Ubuntu release

  extracting 'vivid.tar.gz'

  Upon reboot I notice that I am running the Vivid kernel but apparently
  some packages had failed to configure:

  lance at lance-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get -f install
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree       
  Reading state information... Done
  The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:

    linux-image-3.16.0-23-generic linux-image-extra-3.16.0-23-generic tsconf
  Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

  Now it's time to reboot again. I'm sure you'll need more info but I
  can't think what else to add right now.
