Public bug reported: I tried several times to upgrade to 18.04, but always get the same error: 'essential package ubuntu-minimal not found'.
When I try to install ubuntu-minimal, then I get 'is already the newest version (1.361.1)' - translating from Dutch When I do a 'locate ubuntu-minimal' then I get this: /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-minimal /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-minimal/changelog.gz /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-minimal/copyright /var/lib/dpkg/info/ubuntu-minimal.list /var/lib/dpkg/info/ubuntu-minimal.md5sums So far, I never had a problem with an overloaded mirror-server, when doing upgrades or updates.
