Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apt
Greetings! Upgrading 9.10->10.04 on 5 IBM blade servers resulted in numerous dependency bugs with lots of reboots required, freezes, and requests (from apt) to dpkg --configure -a run it with the --fix-missing option. In total took me about 2 days (imagine a happy owner of 1000 blades). Although the clean installation now seems error-free, I had lots of packages and config files I wanted to preserve rather that reinstall/reconfigure I am attaching 5 contents of /var/log/dist-upgrade created with tar cvzf b0* /var/log/dist-upgrade.
