[Bug 616721] Re: update-manager crashed with DBusException in update()

[Britt Yazel]

hmm.... at Chris, you shouldn't have 63 held back updates. Have you tried
running "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to see if there is any possible
dependancy resolution. I have had to run a dist-upgrade 2 or 3 times
since I have started running the alpha. Right now I don't have any held
back packages and a decently stable system.

**Tip: make sure when you run a dist-upgrade that it doesn't remove
anything vital such as 'Ubuntu-Desktop'. Also, whenever it wants to
remove a full application or library, make sure that it will also
install either an updated version or a replacement application to take
it's spot. AKA don't let it remove xserver-xorg unless it is going to
install an updated version in its place ;-)
