I can confirm this bug in a way. Backgrund info: I upgraded from Gutsy
to the RC of Heron (or at least it said "This is a release candidate"
before performing the upgrade though the RC had not officially been
released yet due to the delay).

So far updating always worked fine, but when I opened the update manager
a few hours ago a dialog popped up and told me that not all updates
could be installed and offered to perform a partial upgrade, which I
did. I started the update manager again after that to see whether the
missing updates could be performed now. I saw that only one update was
left: update-manager-core and that was unselected. Nevertheless the
"partial upgrade" dialog popped up once more, I accepted again and a few
seconds later the updater noticed that nothing was left to update. When
I canceled the update dialogs, the update-manager-core update was grayed
out and could not be selected.

I decided to go for the command line and used the apt-get commands
autoremove, autoclean, update and install but the update-manager-core
did not get installed ths way either. I decided to remove it and ubuntu-
desktop, update-notifier and update-manager got removed with it because
of the dependencies. The interesting thing though is that now update-
manager was found to be not installable, while i could indeed install
update-manager-core again.
