Public bug reported:
The menu item "Repair broken packages" calls the following command:
env RELEASE_UPGRADER_NO_SCREEN=1 python3 "/usr/lib/python3/dist-
packages/DistUpgrader/dist-upgrade.py" --partial --frontend
DistUpgradeViewText --datadir /usr/share/ubuntu-release-upgrader
However, that fails with the following:
Your python install is corrupted. Please fix the '/usr/bin/python'
symlink.
This is because of the _pythonSymlinkCheck function in
DistUpgradeController.py (provided by ubuntu-release-upgrader) using
os.readlink('/usr/bin/python') but not os.readlink() on what the first
os.readlink() call returned. That being said the whole function should
be updated to see if python3 is being used.
