Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

My laptop had Ubuntu 8.04, later upgraded to 8.10, then upgraded to
Jaunty using 'update-manager -d'. All the download process was fine upto
the package installation and configuration process.

On Intrepid I installed python 2.4 alongside 2.5. I need it for python
development such as zope, plone etc. Jaunty installed python 2.6 but for
some reason /usr/bin/python symlink was removed (it was pointing to
python 2.5), but never restored to the adequate path
(/usr/bin/python2.6). Since /usr/bin/python was not available, a lot of
scripts failed.

I managed to solve this issue by manually creating the /usr/bin/python
(to 2.6) symlink and reinstalling ubuntu-desktop package. That solved
the problem completely.
