Title:
  Xenial: Mouse pointer disappears after release upgrade

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After release upgrade from Wily to Xenial, the mouse pointer is
  invisible.

  Reproduce:
  – Install Ubuntu Wily Werewolf desktop from the official Live CD.
  – Upgrade to Xenial Xerus with „do-release-upgrade -d”.

  Only had a chance to test it on KVM virtual machine, but it happened every time I upgraded a virtual machine to Xenial.
  Also, only tested via Wily -> Xenial upgrade, haven't tried Trusty -> Xenial.

  Nature Xenial install from the Xenial Live CD daily build right away
  doesn't have this issue, so I assume something goes wrong during the
  upgrade process.
