The problem disappears after logging out and in again.

This is the kind of information that the user would like to know
(to avoid doing the upgrade at the wrong time and to know that these
kinds of errors are expected), possibly before upgrading. Perhaps
the NEWS file would be the right place (new entries are displayed by
apt-listchanges). If the machine has only one user (who is also the
admin), he should see it; otherwise the admin can warn his users.
