I noticed that this bug should be resolved for Utopic since the newest Unity 8 has been splitted (unity8-common).

I wonder when and if the same change will land in Trusty. I can't update several packages because of this bug (Mesa and of course qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu). If check only Mesa to update I get a huge list of packages to be removed and when I check everything to update I of course still get all these Unity 8 packages to install.

Unity 8 in Trusty on desktop is useless so I'm not going to install that and on top of that it removes modemmanager. Removing modemanager means that anyone using modem with NetworkManager can't connect to internet. There are of course other programs like Wvdial (which I'm using) but that isn't part of default install.
