If I try to update from 3.5 to 3.6 (python3 & python3-minimal package), 
it tries to REMOVE following packages:

network-manager-pptp
gnome-session
unity-session
gvfs-backends
gnome-control-center
friendly-recovery
gnome-shell-extension-better-volume
gnome-shell-extension-dashtodock
ubuntu-app-launch
grub-customizer
python3-systemd
gnome-shell-extension-move-clock
ubuntu-system-service
policykit-1-gnome
update-manager
python3-aptdaemon.gtk3widgets
language-selector-common		install
gnome-shell-extension-autohidetopbar
usb-creator-common
libubuntu-app-launch4
ubuntu-standard
plainbox-provider-resource-generic
libpython3.6		install
ubuntu-desktop
gnome-settings-daemon
python3		install
xdiagnose
usb-creator-gtk
rhythmbox-plugins		install
libertine-xmir-tools
unity
network-manager-gnome
libcontent-hub0
iio-sensor-proxy
network-manager
packagekit-tools
software-properties-gtk
python3-uno
python3-plainbox
gnome-tweak-tool
checkbox-converged
unity-control-center
gnome-disk-utility
unity-greeter
indicator-session
nplan
apturl
ubuntu-minimal
nautilus-share
udisks2
gvfs-fuse
nautilus
plainbox-provider-checkbox
indicator-bluetooth
unity-control-center-signon
libpam-systemd
packagekit
indicator-datetime
rfkill
gnome-shell-extension-pixelsaver
gnome-applets
libubuntu-app-launch3-dev
policykit-1
gvfs
python3-aptdaemon
ubuntu-release-upgrader-gtk
libnss-resolve
gnome-shell
dbus-user-session
aptdaemon
python3-checkbox-support
language-selector-gnome
synaptic
gnome-system-log
sessioninstaller
network-manager-pptp-gnome
update-notifier
gnome-session-flashback
gvfs-daemons
gnome-shell-extension-impatience
colord
mutter


Which basically removes everything. So How do I perform update without 
reinstalling the iso? Any idea?


Thanks/
