Bug description:
  On a amd64 natty->oneirc upgrade with libcupsys2 installed the upgrade
  will not work, attached is a apt.log and the dpkg status file.

  TEST CASE:
  1. use AMD64 natty THROWAWAY VM (as the next step will put any real system into a really unmaintainable state)
  2. either use the dpkg-status file attached here via "sudo cp dpkg-status /var/lib/dpkg/status" OR just copy/paste the libcupsys2 package record from the file
  3. run do-release-upgrade
  4. verify that it fails
  5. enable natty-proposed in your /etc/apt/sources.list
  6. run "do-release-upgrade" again and verify that it works this time
