Public bug reported:
Last Friday's updates (IIRC) resulted initially in the installation of
libindicator6 which in return resulted in the removal of the ubuntu-
desktop package. I have left it like this over the weekend hoping that
an additional update would resolve this issue.
Currently I have opted to re-install ubuntu-desktop to at least have an
operating desktop but this removed all the indicators in the top right corner
of unity-2d (which I have because of the limitation of my graphics card).
Installation of ubuntu-desktop gave the following result:
$ sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[sudo] password for rdrijsen:
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libindicator3{a} libunity-2d-private0{a} ubuntu-desktop unity-2d
unity-2d-launcher{a} unity-2d-panel{a} unity-2d-places{a}
unity-2d-spread{a}

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libindicator6: Breaks: libindicator3 (<= 0.3.90-0ubuntu1) but 0.3.22-0ubuntu2
is to be installed.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

11) libappindicator0.1-cil
12) libappindicator1
13) libindicator6
14) python-appindicator
15) tomboy
