This is fixed in the hardy version of the upgrader, it will ensure that
the cache dir is not touched.

Perhaps we should try to get a lock in the clean up script before
remving files.

You received this bug
Output is
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ apt-config dump |grep -i MinAge
APT::Archives::MinAge 2;
Note that I have managed to complete the upgrade manually by apt-get
installing everything that apt-get upgrade said was held back.
Thanks,
Richard.

Thanks for this additional information.
Can you please give me the output of:
$ apt-config dump |grep -i MinAge
It looks like this is a race with the cleanup process for the debs in
/var/cache/apt/archives

Feisty upgrade
In my case I did install Feisty successfully. The problem started when I tried
to fix wireless card BCM4318 .
Looking for tutorial I started with installing BCN43XX.
I went to the Terminal and : sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutternd
Something went wrong at that step, I closed the Terminal
