Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: update-manager
I upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10
At some point during the download it just failed to download the remaining
packages. It only said "unable to download the package" or something general
like that. Then it stopped and came back to the download "manager packages
screen".
Then it said I could upgrade some packages (witch at that point I didnt
know If it would be done as a part of the release update or just other
kind of upgrade because I had new list of packages)
I knew I was running out of space, so I just freed some space and tried
again. Then it all worked ok.
At no point I was advised I was running out of space to download the
remaining packages
Hope its useful
