UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)

No, this is an old install from October, and I update daily, but due to a non-server grade SSD system disk, I choose in a dialog not to record the history.

Due to the user friendly interface, I did not know, that this can switch off the important system logs as well.

Concerning this particular bug, the upgrade log would be the most essential piece of information.

I just wonder, why virtually nobody else reports this bug, when I suffer from it on 3 machines of really different booting systems. It is very unlikely that this bug depends on hardware or on installed packages or on anything.

Each day I'm scared, that a package will be automatically udated, and I have to repair 3 installation.

Especially bad, if I have to repair my laptop in front of the gathering audience, waiting for the late beginning of my university lecture, just because the laptop sucked an update just before I left my office to go to give a lecture. On the other hand, I do not wish to switch off the automatic update. Just because of philosophy.
