More tests, again within Saucy, but this time with the graphical update-manager:
-Update installs cleanly over 2.6.0 or non-broken 2.10.0 and works.
-Over broken 2.10.0 (i.e. after a failed upgrade), update-manager tells the user to run apt-get install -f; this fixes the problem whether or not -proposed is enabled.
i.e. this update doesn't actually make recovering an already broken upgrade any easier, but (as that message probably appears before any new packages are installed) it is likely that no update could, and as it doesn't do any harm it should still go ahead for the benefit of those who haven't yet tried to upgrade.

I haven't tested a full system upgrade.
