My update from Feisty to Gutsy release candidate by update-manager -d
-command was jammed by this bug, package installation hanging at
"Stopping bluetooth services". I didn't want to do a clear install so I
messed around and tried to find a way to get forward. In the end,
killing dpkg -process allowed for the update to proceed.

After that, there came ~15 error messages about missing dependencies,
because of the failed package install, but nothing critical.

I was able to finish the update and rebooted. Afterwards everything is
good except for update manager complaining about the broken packages.
Because I don't have any bluetooth hardware, I disabled the bluetooth
script using the tip by Kai Scroeder earlier in this report.

> little hack to bring the system into a consistent state:
> i put an "exit 0" at the beginning of /etc/init.d/bluetooth

After that I rebooted, and ran "sudo apt-get install -f" which fixed the update.
Hope this helps somebody! : )
