Human theme removed on upgrade from karmic to lucid

[Nikolaus Rath]

Binary package hint: human-theme

Atfer upgrading from karmic to lucid, my desktop looked really ugly.
Turns out that the human-theme was *removed* , presumably because none of the ubuntu-{desktop,base,standard,minimal} packages depend on it.

Did you upgrade from Karmic -> Lucid? Or did you do a clean install of Lucid?
If you have upgraded Human theme will not be removed.
For a fresh install it is not required since we now have the new Light-themes which are the default

No offense, but did you really read my bug report? In the title it says "after upgrade" and the very first sentence is "After upgrading from karmic to lucid".

I upgraded, and the Human theme *got* removed

[Nikolaus Rath (nikratio)]

I suppose this is an upgrade-manager problem then. I'm attaching /var/log/dist-upgrade/*.

Note that after the upgrade, there was neither a "light" nor a "human" theme available in System -> Preferences -> Appearance. I fixed the problem by manually installing the human theme.

It seems to me that one of the ubuntu-* packages really ought to depend on a proper theme, so I'm adding ubuntu-desktop as well.

No offense[English might not be your native language] , but "Not installed" is not the same as "removed". Hence the question.
"Not installed" means something[you expected] was not installed during the update/upgrade.
"Removed" means an installed package got removed.
Not to worry, I'v edited the description accordingly.

However , this is not a theme bug , closing theme task. This would be a bug in update manager. The bug will be dealt in update manager

[Nikolaus Rath (nikratio)]

Correction. The light-theme was installed, so there is no problem with ubuntu-meta. (I got confused by the fact that there was no "light theme" in the appearance dialog).

Nevertheless, there is a problem with the upgrade. It should either not deinstall human-theme or automatically switch to one of the light themes for all users.
