Same problem for me. I use a 64-bit-Ubuntu and updated from 7.10 to 8.4 and then directly to 8.10. Synaptics tells me, it want to install sysvinit ant to remove startup-tasks, system-services, ubuntu-minimal, upstart, upstart-comapt-sysv and upstart-logd. The update-manager also seems to want to do so, if I start them, but if I click ok, it finaly decides to not to do any thing. "sudo apt-get upgrade" means, that there is no need to upgrade nothing. So it seams to be a bug in synaptic (and in the update-manager). I can't find the bug tracking system of synaptic. Does anybody know?
