[Bug 773022] Re: Failed to upgrade to 11.04: dpkg: error: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 14082 package 'kde-plasmoid-cwp': junk after word in `priority' field

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package dpkg - 1.16.0.3ubuntu1

---------------
dpkg (1.16.0.3ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable; remaining changes:
    - Merge from git://git.debian.org/users/hertzog/dpkg.git
      pu/multiarch/snapshot/20110314 for multiarch support.
    - On upgrade from 1.16.0~ubuntu[1-3], if /var/lib/dpkg/info/$arch is a
      directory, migrate the contents to var/lib/dpkg/info; and handle the
      reverse on downgrade.  This does not handle metadata for packages of
      foreign architectures.
  * Restores support for parsing priority fields with unknown values.
    LP: #773022.

Bug description:
  TEST CASE:
  - regression test should be enough, if a copy of kde-plasmoid-cwp can be obtained and upgrade wiht
    that would be the perfect test

  Binary package hint: update-manager

  Followed the upgrade process after getting the upgrade notification in
  KPackageKit.

  Upgrade packages were downloaded and the installation began. Upgrade
  aborted at some point. I have attached the files from /var/log/dist-
  upgrade (wasn't able to copy apt-term.log - system reported it as
  unreadable)
