I don't know why, but an upgrade in Ubuntu usually means to erase a lot
of things you manually installed, and install a lot of things you
manually erased.  Usually all the process download the equivalent of a
CD  (600-700MBs)  and break a lot of things during the upgrade.
Usually I rather a clean install, if I have to use Ubuntu.  

For the record:  This and other issues like that made me runaway from
Ubuntu and use Fedora.


Kind regards,
Lailah
