Bug Description
update-manager 1:0.196.7, Ubuntu Trusty
1. Get into a situation where the software index is broken.
2. Launch Software Updater.
What you see: "It is impossible to install or remove any software right now. Please use the package manager 'Synaptic' or run 'sudo apt-get install -f' in a terminal to fix this issue first."
What you should see: Software Updater should not suggest that you use software that isn't installed by default at a moment when nothing can be installed.
