So this is triggered by the obsolete indicator-me package. indicator-messages already conflicts with indicator-me, but the conflict is applied too late in the upgrade.

Aside from libraries, this is the only reverse dependency of libdbusmenu-glib1 in lucid that does not have a version available for upgrade in precise; so chances are that adding a conflict against indicator-me will be sufficient to get this upgrade to go through correctly. If it *doesn't*, then we should deal with this via an update-manager PostDistUpgradeCache quirk instead to force upgrade of indicator-appmenu instead of continuing to hack around it with conflicts.
