Public bug reported: I was surprised when Ubuntu let me try and upgrade a 32-bit 14.04 to a 64-bit 16.04. Is that supported? If not, it should be stopped with an error early on. If it is supported, then, well, I got this crash. Of course, it may not be related, and the 32/64 thing may be a coincidence...
