Update to Ubuntu 9.10 (code name "Karmic Koala")

Yesterday I updated to the new Ubuntu 9.10. The update was as usual very smoothly (I accepted the default values when ask something).

After restarting, the following error message appeared:
Starting Google Desktop manually via the application menu did work. Still, I had to reinstall Google Desktop  via Synaptic in order to avoid this error message during startup.

The next message I got was:

I clicked on "Run this action now", followed the instructions and the missing language components got installed.






I used the following language settings:











Afterwards I enabled the third party repositories again (in "Software Sources"):

  • deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable non-free
  • deb http://linux.getdropbox.com/ubuntu karmic main
  • deb-src http://linux.getdropbox.com/ubuntu karmic/
  • deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ karmic free non-free
  • deb-src http://packages.medibuntu.org/ karmic free non-free
  • deb http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/pculture.org/miro/linux/repositories/ubuntu karmic/

After reloading this packages, the following packages got upgraded:

skype, skype-common, googleearth, googleearth-data, nautilus-dropbox, libdvdcss2, w32codecs.

Afterwards, I could enjoy the improvements and new features of Ubuntu 9.10.
