Bug Description

Not sure what this is.
Started upgrade of my 10.4 LTS Kubuntu installation to 12.4.2 Kubuntu.
Received some error messages, the first of which even indicated a possible failing of the upgrade in the sense that maybe the resulting 12.4 LTS would not boot.
Luckily however(?) the upgrade did turn out to be successful in the sense that the result is bootable.

However I have got the niggling feeling that perhaps I am missing some software.
