Public bug reported:

I ran an upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 with 1.9GB free space. No warning
was given about insufficient free space. I received two popup windows
during the upgrade informing me that I was low on space and this went
down to less than 100MB (as I manually freed up space).

The problem may be:
1. ~1800 packages are downloaded (this could be the amount of free space it 
thinks it needs
2. After upgrading and removing old packages it uses a net amount of ~500MB 
(this could be the free space it thinks)
3. During unpacking and installing 1800 packages it uses 2GB+ <== this is 
definitely not the amount of space it thinks it needs.
