At least one of the binary packages vanished:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

I chatted with infinity about that:

2012-09-16 16:36:11 hggdh for the linux 3.0.0-26.42 kernel, shouldn't there be a linux-headers-3.0.0-26 package? I see a depends from linux-headers-(virtual|generic|server) to it, but I cannot find this package
2012-09-16 16:51:37 infinity hggdh: Looks there to me
2012-09-16 16:51:38 infinity (base)adconrad@cthulhu:~$ rmadison linux-headers-3.0.0-26

2012-09-16 16:59:00 hggdh infinity: sorry, I am looking for the LTS HWE packages.

2012-09-16 17:00:14 hggdh (output from a Lucid system, with -proposed enabled
2012-09-16 17:01:21 hggdh and my fault for not stating it was on the LTS HWE
2012-09-16 17:06:24 hggdh or, a more self-explanatory output: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1209879/
2012-09-16 17:26:49 infinity hggdh: Oh special. I think launchpad kinda oopsed it out of existence.
2012-09-16 17:26:59 infinity I wonder how many other files from that upload went the same way...
2012-09-16 17:31:26 infinity hggdh: Remind me tomorrow and I'll see if there's a way we can resurrect that, but I fear we might need a no-change rebuild (or we can just skip this SRU cycle for lts-backport-oneiric and pick it up next time).
2012-09-16 17:32:41 infinity hggdh: For now, I suspect you'll want to fail the testing on it, so I know not to promote it later. :P
2012-09-16 17:36:30 hggdh infinity: roger, and ack

As such, failing this build.
