Bug Description
Bugs similar to this have been reported but they don't seem to have a pattern. I'm running feisty (updated from Edgy). I tried to fix the problem by my own limited means (dpkg-reconfigure -a; reinstalling ubuntu-desktop) but met with no success. (I consistently used 'update-manager -c' to check).
I will post the /var/logs/

I found something of a work around. Other upgrade managers didn't work either (aptitude). Followed the directions at www.go2linux. org/upgrading- to-gutsy
http://
and editted the meta-release file. I then used
sudo do-release-upgrade
This worked although it is not a recommended method.
