I got alot of errors while upgrading and the upgrading stopped. I can't open the update manager anymore.

tonkku@ubuntu:~$ update-manager -d

(update-manager:12524): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: gtk-widgets.css:62:17: Theming engine 'unico' not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/update-manager", line 37, in <module>
    from UpdateManager.UpdateManager import UpdateManager
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/UpdateManager/UpdateManager.py", line 39, in <module>
    import dbus
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/dbus/__init__.py", line 82, in <module>
    import dbus.types as types
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/dbus/types.py", line 6, in <module>
    from _dbus_bindings import (
ImportError: No module named _dbus_bindings

By the way, I used wubi to install ubuntu. Is that affecting it?

  • I'd suggest sudo apt-get install dbus-python (or --reinstalling it if it is installed)

You could always try the Ubuntu Server method of upgrading (which I use to upgrade desktops over SSH):

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-release-upgrader-core
sudo do-release-upgrade

Also, the -d flag is for upgrading to a development release. There simply isn't a development release that's a target from 12.10. 13.04 is your only upgrade path and that's released. By simply dropping the -d and using -c (to check for new releases), you might find it works:

update-manager -c

  • I doubt you'll get the same errors. They all seem to be to do with the UI.
