I had to manually add the repository using "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list" as adept would corrupt the file (adding "ÿ" to the end of some lines), but the actual upgrade was just fine. I had to click "show terminal" to answer some questions during upgrade, but that no big deal (as I'm used to it, it seams to happen every now and then even during "normal" updates). However, the UI was a mess. Part was in Swedish and part in English, and if that wasn't bad enough, all Swedish text had all occurrences of å, ä and ö replaced with Ã¥, ä, and ö. Obviously you are treating the utf-8 encoded translations as ISO-8859-1 (or ISO-8859-15), which basically messes with anything but English.
