Title:
  update-manager fails

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I just tried updating to 11.10 from 11.04.   The update manager bailed
  out with the pop-up:

  Invalid package information

  After your package information was updated the essential package
  'ubuntu-minimal' can not be found anymore.  This indicates a serious
  error, please report this bug using the command 'ubuntu-bug update-
  manager' in a terminal and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade
  in the bug report.

  When I tried reporting the bug, I see an error on the console:  /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt-term.log: No such file or directory
  and then ubuntu-bug exits complaining something about invalid ubuntu files.
