Title:
  dist-upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04 errors

Status in “debconf” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  Updating from 8.04 to 10.04, a dialog box was shown, that instructed
  to create a bug report with contents of /var/log/dist-upgrade.

  So here it is.

  After this error, update aborted. Rerunning allowed it to mostly
  complete, except for 'flashplugin-nonfree' being in "a very bad state"
  (a number of bugs already reported about this).  Fixed by manually
  removing package following instructions found on the web.

  Now, apport is trying to report many many packages as "failed to
  install or upgrade, even though they appear to be installed...
