Public bug reported:
I am upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10 using the cdromupgrade on the
alternate cd. In the beginning it asks if one wants to download the
latest updates, and *promises that the network will not be used at all*
if one selects 'no'. However, even on selecting no, it does download
packages ("fetching file 1756 of 2426 at xx kB/s"), thus breaking its
promise. Depending on how the user is paying for the bandwidth, the
update manager's lie this might even cost the user real money.
