Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: smart-notifier

When upgrading from Karmic to Lucid the smart-notifier package breaks
the complete upgrading process and leaves the system in an inconsistent
state.

To reproduce:
* have smart-notifier (0.28-1.1ubuntu2) installed in 9.10
* start upgrading Ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04
* late in the upgrading process, when the smart-notifier package is going to be 
configured, the whole GNOME session is killed suddenly and you're thrown back 
to the GDM login screen
* the upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 remains unfinished

I can reproduce this behaviour on two completely different machines
(laptop and desktop pc, both with Ubuntu i386 desktop versions
installed)

I can also reproduce this on a freshly installed 10.04, which was not
upgraded from 9.10: just install smart-notifier and the GNOME session
will be killed.
