This issue still persists. I've been using Ubuntu 12.04 since Alpha 1
and been doing an update/full-upgrade every other day. Yesterday it
wanted to uninstall over 200+ packages, I waited until today and it
still wanted to do it so I finally let it. When I got back into the GUI,
and went to Additional drivers, the ATI driver was no longer activated,
it was before. When I went to activate ATI Post-Release-Updates (again,
I have done this in the past) it errors out against jockey.
