Public bug reported:

I started the upgrade manager (11.04 to 11.10) and had to stop during
the "Getting new packages" part. I then later on re-started the process
and libimobiledevice2 was upgradable, so I decided to upgrade it before
finishing the system upgrade. Bad choice as now the system upgrade
process stops doing anything at "Getting new packages"... I then tried
downgrading libimobiledevice2 from 1.1.0-3ubuntu1 to 1.1.0-3, but that
doesn't help...

While I agree that wasn't the best thing to do, I think in a system
upgrade is stopped you should have a way of restarting it from scratch
or continuing where it left off; currently it continues from what the UI
says. I think it build an original list of packages to be upgraded and
now it's stuck because of a mismatch.

BTW, running "ubuntu-bug update-manager" stays stuck in the "Collecting
problem information" step, and "ubuntu-bug" then choosing "other" closes
with an error that a PID has to be given, even though there is no
visible way of providing that.
