Bug Description
I was attempting to install system updates (security updates). Notified to my computer on 19th November 2015.
I watched the download and install process by expanding the update view.
The process stopped when the package dia was touched by download / install procedure.
So this faulty dia install (I have not been able to reinstall or remove this package) is now preventing security updates.

Ubuntu needs to delete all these crap applications from the Repository.
The Canonical needs to clean out the Repository, in order to remove all applications that are unstable or problematic.
