Title:
  missing depends on ubuntu-release-upgrader-qt - breaks GUI upgrades to
  yakkety

Status in plasma-discover package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in plasma-discover source package in Xenial:
  Confirmed
Status in plasma-discover source package in Yakkety:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Current users running Xenial will be unable to upgrade to Yakkety
  via the GUI, due to missing package.  The button to update basically
  does nothing.

   * Fixing this will allow the significant proportion of users likely
  to upgrade via the GUI route to do so.

   * The package ubuntu-release-upgrader-qt is a required component for
  GUI distribution upgrade in kubuntu, so reintroducing a dependency
  ensures this  is installed by default for such users.

  [Test Case]

   * In software sources set the default Release upgrade path to Normal
  to allow Xenial to Yakkety upgrade.

   * In plasma-discover when offered the upgrade click the 'Upgrade'
  button to accept.

   * Without ubuntu-release-upgrader-qt installed the upgrade does not
  launch - failing without any apparent error message to the user. In
  effect the button appears to do nothing.

  * With ubuntu-release-upgrader-qt the upgrade launches and continues
  as intended.

  [Regression Potential]

   * This is the installation a missing package via an updated
  dependency, which is only used during release upgrades. Therefore it
  is anticipated that the regression potential is minimal. We are
  restoring a package that was always intended to be installed.
