Title:
  Dist upgrade from kubuntu to plucky beta removes kubuntu-desktop
  packages

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:

  like 2h on my devent developer machine (100% CPU from a python process
  called "plucky").

  After that, it says that it will

  "418 packages are going to be removed. 1 new package is going to be 
  installed."

  It went through, I rebooted and after that, all plasma packages were
  missing. I had to reinstall the kubuntu-desktop metapackage. Other
  packages that I installed manually where there.

  I tried this 2 times already, same result. I have a log file of the dist upgrade if it helps (16MB of logs).
