Public bug reported:

I was upgrading from 14.04 to 14.10. After a while, I got the following
exception:

  File 
"/tmp/ubuntu-release-upgrader-opo6yaru/DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeViewKDE.py", line 
337, in conffile
    os.write(self.master_fd, "y\n")
TypeError: 'str' does not support the buffer interface

Here's the full output:
