This bug was fixed in the package update-manager - 1:0.93.26

---------------
update-manager (1:0.93.26) intrepid; urgency=low

  * DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeController.py:
    - workaround kde tmpfile permissions (LP: #277431)
  * UpdateManager/Common/utils.py:
    - do not crash if gconfd is not availabe/unusable
      (LP: #281248)
  * DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeViewKDE.py:
    - do not use "kde" frontend during the upgrade, it
      crashes because of the kde3->kde4 transition
      if run at the wrong time (LP: #283942)
  * DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeView.py:
    - ignore SIGPIPE when forking the Dpkg::Pre-Install
      scripts to fix error with etckeeper (LP: #283642)
