Distribution upgrade from Kubuntu 6.10 to 7.04 (beta) crashed during "cleanup"-step.

The problem might have something to do with the package beeing removed in the cleanup. I don't have the full list of packages scheduled to be removed; but after the crash running apt-get autoremove results in the following:

:~$ sudo apt-get autoremove
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libgtkhtml3.8-15 python-numeric ogle-mmx gtkhtml3.8 libmyspell3c2 python-gtk2 python-cairo liba52-0.7.4
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  gtkhtml3.8 liba52-0.7.4 libgtkhtml3.8-15 libmyspell3c2 ogle-mmx python-cairo python-gtk2 python-numeric
