Title:
  impossible to install a required package during 14.04 partial update

Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  During 14.04 partial update, I encountered the following error :

  Can't install 'ubuntu-desktop'

  It was impossible to install a required package. Please report this as
  a bug using 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal.

  Could not calculate the upgrade

  An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.

   This can be caused by:
   * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
   * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
   * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu

  This is most likely a transient problem, please try again later.

  I tried updating through Synaptic and it worked ! Maybe a different
  dependency solver ?
