Hi Simon, thanks for looking into this. I have two problems with your reaction: - I'm not sure as well why kde-desktop was not previously installed (it wasn't on another Kubuntu system either, but the upgrader did work flawlessly there - or is the metapackage only needed during the release upgrade process?), but the manual install (apt install kde-desktop) didn't reveal any conflicts, so I wouldn't expect the upgrader to fail when trying to install the metapackage on its own because of a conflict. - more seriously, I'm not happy with the renaming of the title: I tried to find this very report while I couldn't access my mail. I tried with keywords kde-desktop, do-release-upgrade, Kubuntu to no avail. I see launchpad not only as a means to communicate with developers / maintainers but also as an information source for others having the same problem. I think you made it quite impossible for anyone searching for the same problem here on launchpad to find this report and the solution which did solve the problem in my case. Kind regards, Jürgen
