Public bug reported:
While upgrading to 14.04, I got the following during the 'upgrade' phase
of the installation :
WARNING:root:can't add zenity (E:Unable to correct problems, you have held
broken packages.)

This was already reported in Bug #847475 but apparently never looked at.
I don't know if the "Unable to correct problems, you have held broken
packages" have something to do with the issue, but the traceback does
bring failure to the 'apt-clone' phase.
The system is installed and usable with one single user, but the rest of
the environment has not been recovered
Since the problem happened during installation, running ubuntu-bug is
mostly useless. I can have the logs in /var/log/installer available if
needed
