This problem has been getting worse with each release for several releases now. It is now getting to be too much of a problem to ignore.
A warning, at least, would be a good start. Getting more upgrade testing, as was done for the 8.04 to 10.04 upgrade should really become standard for all releases. I know it is harder to get testers for the regular releases but there must be some way to encourage more. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876146 Title: Upgrading Ubuntu is risky (unusable or unbootable PC).
