[Bug 1534374] Re: unable to upgrade to 15.04 due to libstdc++6 SRU

[Cristian Bungau]

Do not upgrade at all! Why bother? Many things will no longer work even 
after upgrading using the install disk, unless you have the latest PC 
model with lots of RAM (my 2 GB are not enough)...

  unable to upgrade to 15.04 due to libstdc++6 SRU

Bug description:
  initially had a problem with X when i installed a new Nvidia video
  card.  got that working but only one monitor was functioning (other is
  displayport).  Thought maybe upgrading to a new release might fix the
  problem.  Software update only offered 15.04, so I said ok and tried
  to upgrade.  It crashed with the info attached.  rebooted just in
  case, but still get the same problem
