Brian, this kind of message won't help my mom or someone like her solve the
problem. If you want people like them to use Ubuntu, I think that all these
messages should look like this:

package to remove software from a Launchpad PPA and
try the upgrade again.

Thanks but main.log is not very informative.
At first I thought it was lack of lubuntu-desktop (and the crap it installs
