You are extremely lucky that you didn't wake up a few hours earlier
and update to image #257, which would have left your phone in a state
unable to launch apps (including an inability to update to #258 to
resolve the issue). You would have had to grumble and dig out
ubuntu-device-flash in order to recover ;-)

The breakage in #257 was my fault, apologies to anybody who installed
it unknowingly.
