Title:
  Kubuntu 24.10 do-release-upgrade and  Steam dependencies install
  produces not booting desktop

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

Bug description:
  1. Using a clean and upgraded install of Kubuntu 24.10, install
  Valve's Steam from the webesite: https://store.steampowered.com/about/

  2. perform do-release-upgrade

  3. Note that the "Searching for software" step will be extremely slow
  (taking 1 to 1.5 hours in some tests).

  4. When the install complete but before rebooting, check the status of
  the kununtu-desktop package and note that it is not installed.  If
  system is restarted, it will not boot. Installing kubuntu-desktop
  prior to rebooting will allow proper rebooting.
