This is the test for Stable Release Update.

** Description changed:

+ = Impact =
+ If apport is not upgraded before a package installation failure happens the 
package installation failure mechanism will fail as it will try to use a 
feature of apport that isn't available.  This prevents us from receiving some 
package install failures that we should receive.
+ 
+ = Test Case=
+ On a precise sytem
+ 1) run do-release-upgrade -d in a terminal
+ 2) choose not to continue with the distribution upgrade when you see the 
Unity3D warning
+ 3) cd to /tmp/update-manager-SOMETHING (this is where the dist-upgrader for 
quantal was downloaded)
+ 4) download test.py from bug 1070043
+ 5) in the quantal dist-upgrader folder run "sudo python test.py"
+ 6) observe the error message 'package_hook: error: no such option: --tags'
+ Now to use test the version from proposed:
+ 1) run do-release-upgrade -d -p in a terminal
+ 2) choose not to continue with the distribution upgrade when you see the 
Unity3D warning
+ 3) cd to /tmp/update-manager-SOMETHINGELSE (this is where the dist-upgrader 
for quantal from proposed was downloaded)
+ 4) copy test.py from /tmp/update-manager-SOMETHING to 
/tmp/update-manager-SOMETHINGELSE
+ 5) in the SOMETHINGELSE folder run "sudo python test.py"
+ 6) there should not be an error in the terminal
+ 7) confirm that there is a /var/crash/2vcard.0.crash file
+ 
  During a failed upgrade, I saw these errors, indicating that the apport
  package hook hadn't been upgraded before attempting to call some new
  features:
  
  dpkg: error processing libasyncns0 (--configure):
-  no package named `libasyncns0' is installed, cannot configure
+  no package named `libasyncns0' is installed, cannot configure
  Setting up libjson0:amd64 (0.10-1ubuntu1) ...
  Usage: package_hook [options]
  package_hook: error: no such option: --tags
