This feels like a reoccurring theme; not all files and directories are
checked if they exist in update-managers dist-upgrade code.
DistUpgradeController.py
------
947 def enableApport(self, fname="/etc/default/apport"):
948 " enable apoprt "
949 # for jaunty and later we could use this instead:
950 # env = copy.copy(os.environ)
951 # env["force_start"] = "1"
952 # subprocess.call(["/etc/init.d/apport","start"], env=env)
953 # but hardy and intrepid do not have the force_start yet
954 if not os.path.exists(fname):
955 return
956 # copy the jaunty version of the conf file in place
957 # (this avoids a conffile prompt later)
958 logging.debug("enabling apport")
959 shutil.copy("etc-default-apport","/etc/default/apport")
960 subprocess.call(["/etc/init.d/apport","start"])
etc-default-apport file does not exist.
To temporarily fix your issue, execute this;
echo "enabled=1" >> /etc/default/apport
echo "maxsize=209715200" >> /etc/default/apport
and re-execute 'update-manager --dist-upgrade'.
