[Bug 2006989] [NEW] Update to from 22.04 to 22.10 does not work, but reason remains unlear

[Ulf Morys]

Public bug reported:

The only message in the context that is somewhat comprehensible to me
is:

"Das benötigte Paket »ubuntu-minimal« wurde nach der Aktualisierung
Ihrer Paketinformationen nicht gefunden."

aka

seems like the update process needs a package called "ubuntu-minimal" -
which could not be found after "updating your package info".

That's a package I never heard of and that I certainly did not touch
(....consciously, that is).
