Installation of Kubuntu 14.04 stopped when trying to restore old packages already installed (Kubuntu 10.10)

[MrCrapaud]

Installation of Kubuntu 14.04 stopped (93 % already done) when trying to restore old packages already installed (Kubuntu 10.10). I had the same problems when trying to install Kubuntu 14.04 on the partition where Kubuntu 10.04 had already been installed.

The installation stops but I am able to use the version.
