Bug description:
  This occurred during a local "do-release-upgrade" I did not reboot and
  instead updated the package trees and performed an apt-get dist-
  upgrade -f... icedtea installed successfully on the 3rd round of apt-
  get dist-upgrade -f. This is my children's "edubuntu" laptop. I can
  only guess that somethings were installed out of order during the
  upgrade... as the issues experienced had to do with dependencies and
  they installed after I went through several re-runs of apt-get.
  Another potential is that upgrading via wireless potentially
  introduced issues into those packages and cause problems...
