So farthe fix is Ok.
- I took the karmic backup dump (from which the initial upgrade to lucid
failed) and rolled back to that
- I added karmic-proposed to updates
- I selected python-apt, update-manager-core and update-manager from
karmic-proposed
- I updated the above
- then I selected upgrade
Thanks for testing Pekka, that's much appreciated. Yes the same problem
exists when upgrading from LTS - LTS. The new version in Lucid fixes
the upgrade from karmic or hardy to lucid.
