Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: apt
I have to operate a network that is isolated from the web. To keep my
machines up to date, I rsync archive.ubuntu.org to a 750GiB usb drive
once a week and sneaker-net it across to my private network. So far, all
the Ubuntu distributions have been able to keep updated in this way.
However, I can't dist-upgrade with either `apt-get dist-upgrade` or with
update-manager. I don't get any error, I get nothing but the equivalent
of "no distribution upgrades available". I've set the apt preference for
normal upgrades.
Details - trying to go from hardy to intrepid on x86_64 machines.
** Affects: apt (Ubuntu)
