Bug Description
I used update manager to upgrade from Quantal to Raring during the raring development cycle. I was prompted - twice - with a debconf dialog asking about services to restart for the libc upgrade. Most end users will have no idea what to do; the prompt should be preseeded or otherwise hidden. Clicking the forward button on the dialog resulted in the same dialog popping up a second time. After I clicked forward again, the dialog went away for good.
See attached screenshot for the dialog in question.

How was the upgrade performed? update-manager, do-release-upgrade, apt-get? In theory, we're supposed to skip past asking hard questions in a "desktop" upgrade scenario, but we may have missed a corner case.
