Bug Description
Hi Michael,
testing dapper -> edgy dist upgrade from command line (apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade), apt holds back packages that should be indeed installed:
The following packages have been kept back:
hpijs python-adns python-clientcookie python-crypto python-htmlgen
python-imaging python-imaging-sane python-jabber python-ldap python-mysqldb
python-pam python-pexpect python-pylibacl python-pyopenssl python-pyxattr
python-reportlab python-simpletal python-sqlite python-xmpp ubuntu-minimal
ubuntu-minimal seems to be holded due to upstart.
Fabio

The held back due to upstart problem is known, just run dist-upgrade a second time.
We figured most people who use APT are used to running it multiple times until it sticks
