[Bug 991728] [NEW] dist-upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 through Update Manager stops midway

[Nevill]

Public bug reported:

I am using Kubuntu 12.04, and before that I used 9.10, 10.04, 10.10,
11.04 and 11.10 consequently. Every single time upgrade from one distro
to the next through update manager failed midway and I am forced to
upgrade manually.

The updates download and extract fine, it is the installation phase
where the process halts. The manager window becomes blank and disk
activity ceases.

I have attached the contents of the 'dist-upgrade' folder below.
