Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
Starts up telling it can only do a partial upgrade -- with just a few packages to remove/upgrade. Prevents upgrading using the manager (apt still works, but upgrading manually doesn't help) also no automatic bug report in this case. Running through the application menu doesn't even give any hint something went wrong.
