David Groos is still having a problem:
Ah... I usually do dist-upgrade but since I only thought it only had to do
with kernel upgrades I didn't realize it was important in this situation.
Thanks for your help/teaching!! It now worked.

David

David, here's another lesson! :)
When you put "Status: Open" in a question it means that you're still having an 
issue!

Change that to "Solved"!
(maybe the buttons in the bottom of the page will say "Accept answer" or 
something similar for you)

Status: Open => Answered

Alkis Georgopoulos proposed the following answer:
Hi David,

`sudo apt-get upgrade` is the "wrong" command to run. It means "update
any packages but don't install any new dependencies" they might have.
This can cause partial upgrades and leave the system in a suboptimal
state.

The correct command is `sudo apt-get dist-upgrade`. This ensures that a 
complete update is made, and allows epoptes e.g. to install the new 
python-netifaces it needs to fix WOL issues.
That is what the graphical update-manager does as well, for people not using 
the console to upgrade.

`apt-get dist-upgrade` is to get normal updates and is not to be
confused with `do-release-upgrade`, which does distro upgrades from e.g.
12.04 to 14.04.
