What program did you use to do the upgrade ? (Reassigning to apt in the mean time)

The ordering of the upgrade of the perl package was really bad... it unpacked first perl-modules and perl almost together but perl-base much later, leaving perl completely broken during a large window and resulting in many other package installation failing.

affects:

dpkg (Ubuntu) → apt (Ubuntu)

I used the 'upgrade button' of the update manager from ubuntu. I don't know if that uses apt or dpkg (I assume apt).
