Public bug reported:
Upgrading 16.04.4 to 17.04 via Software Updater. All went well until
almost the last few minutes when I got the error msg: "Could not install
'var/cache/apt/archives/ubuntu-docs_17.04.03_all.deb'". Added message
was: Symbolic link '/usr/share/help/br/ubuntu-help/addremove-
sources.page' size has changed from 60 to 0.
Shortly thereafter I got a second error: "Could not install ubuntu.docs"
Additional msg was: "Package ubuntu-docs is already installed and configured"
(Quotes in both cases are mine)
A few seconds later I got the Error that the upgrade failed then the screen
reverted back to the desktop.
At that point I opened a terminal to check to see what was really
running and got:
r@r-M-7301U:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 17.04
Release: 17.04
Codename: zesty
r@r-M-7301U:~$
I was running 16.04.4 when I started.
Hope this covers what happened vs what I expected.
