Hello, It did work in the sense that Ubuntu was able to launch the upgrade. It repaired the netcat. But in the end, after the upgrade was complete the computer was not able to launch anything. It was the new version 14.04, but I could not start the computer. I do not recall exactly how it failed. So I just reinstalled 12.04. The computer still freezes at least once a day, and I often get a text console saying that I've got a broken pipe. I don't know if I still should try to upgrade or if the problem comes from the computer itself (7 years old). I asked for help in French Ubuntu forums but didn't get an answer yet.
I've seen the bug status have been changed to 'confirmed' since it affected multiple users. I hope what I experienced can help you at least. In French we say 'bon courage' to fix this, and I don't know the equivalent. I suppose a bit of luck will help though. So good luck with this!
