Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: update-manager
ms-ttf-corefonts installs late in the install process. wpa_supplicant
changed a flag from "-w" to "-W" and the installer for it didn't change
/etc/network/interfaces - this caused my network connection to go down
in the middle of the upgrade, so that ms-ttf-corefonts was unable to do
it's wget to sourceforge, and that package failed. I can't build a more
reliable repro since I only have one laptop.
A simple fix would be to either change the order, so that any packages
with internet requirements go earlier, or update the wpa_supplicant
upgrader to check the flags in /etc/network/interfaces in the "pre-up"
section for the wireless interfaces (which is where my problem
originates from).
** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu)
