Attention Upgrading noble systems

Hi everyone,

please pay close attention to apt dist-upgrade output. It might
remove ubuntu-desktop and other packages you might want to keep.

To upgrade your noble system, consider a multi staged approach:

1. `apt upgrade` to upgrade without removals.
2. `apt full-upgrade ubuntu-desktop` (amend with other packages)
   to run a full upgrade, keeping the specified packages installed.

Note that we currently have some uninstallability issues. Packages
migrate from -proposed to release pocket by being removed from
proposed and then added to release. Due to the number of packages
this is taking super long, and packages ended up being removed
before being published in release, some even ended up in the
unapproved queue. These issues should be resolved later today.
