Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
TEST CASE (once update-manager enters hardy-proposed)
1. install ubuntustudio-
2. remove ubuntustudio-
3. run "update-manager"
4. click on "upgrade to 8.04 lts"
5. verify that the upgrade fails
6. run "update-manager -p"
7. click on "upgrade to 8.04 lts"
8. verify that the upgrade works (its enough to show that it can be calculated)
I tried to upgrade to Hardy RC from a current Gutsy installation (64bit version) today, which also has bits and pieces of ubuntustudio installed (not the full Studio distribution). To upgrade I used "update-manager --devel-release" but it fails reproducibly with the message:
Can't install 'ubuntu-desktop'
It was impossible to install a required package. Please report this as a bug.
Attached are the logs from /var/log/

For the records: this can be fixed by manually installing the ubuntu-sounds package before upgrading to Hardy. This solved the problem for me.
