[Bug 873974] Re: do-release-upgrade fails from 11.04 to 11.10 due to missing btrfs-tools package

[Michael Vogt]

Thanks for your bugreport.

Could you please check with:
$ sudo cat /tmp/update-manager-VGGglZ/DistUpgradeVersion.py
what version you are using?

This should be fixed in version 0.152.25.1 that got uploaded a couple of hours ago. If you have this
version and its still crashing the fix is incomplete :/

** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete

Title:
  do-release-upgrade fails from 11.04 to 11.10 due to missing btrfs-
  tools package

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

Bug description:
  Release upgrade doesn't check whether btrfs-tools package is installed
  before attempting to use the commands within the package.

  I have an 11.04 installation (that was done with the installer,
  possibly one of the betas) that uses btrfs root, but doesn't have
  btrfs-tools installed. The attached trace is displayed, but doesn't
  really offer any useful help on what went wrong. The easiest way to
  fix this would be to check whether the btrfs-tools package is
  installed and install it if not, assuming that the user is using
  btrfs.
