Try taking a look at /var/lib/dpkg
I've had a few problems when upgrading in the past. I went all the way
from Hoary to Edgy on this current machine, and finally gave up last
week and did a reinstall from scratch of Edgy.
The main problem I had with the upgraded Edgy was that apt/dpkg/etc.

I have a small partition that I used for Ubuntu testing..It is now up to
dapper..
