[Bug 1871952] [NEW] Ubuntu falsely claims via a notificat ion that I have broken packages, even though I am using a fresh install without updating any packages yet.

[Seija Kijin]

Public bug reported:

After logging into Ubuntu after installing the beta, I changed the
update settings to allow proposed updates and backports. I then
refreshed the cache and checked for updates. APT said no errors.
However, on the menu bar, I received a notifcation saying brokenPackages
> 0, even though that is not true and my system is working without
issue.
