Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: update-manager
While attempting to upgrade to Jaunty, I get the following error:
> Not enough free disk space
>
> The upgrade is now aborted. The upgrade needs a total of 768M free

The problem with this is that I have plenty of space in /usr, as can be shown
by this df output:
> Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
> /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk

Why do I have usr mounted separately? It was a work around to add more space
to my wubi install...
Anyway, ideally, the upgrade manager would first consider all mount
points before doing its space requirements calculation.
Thanks!
