Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: update-manager
I just tried to upgrade from Edgy to Feisty. After downloading the various
packages, I was confronted by a dialog saying "Configuring mdadm" and asking me
to state the "MD arrays needed for the root filesystem". The default, which I
stuck with, was "all", though from the Help button on the dialog I got the
impression I shouldn't have been asked because I don't have a RAID array. After
this, I was told:
-------------------------------
Could not install the upgrades.
The upgrade aborts now. Your system could be in an unusable state. A recovery
will run now (dpkg --configure -a).
Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the
files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport.
installArchives() failed
------------------------------
I had to go away - when I came back later and switched my computer on I
was told 717 updates were available, but not all could be installed and
that I should run a distribution upgrade to install as many as possible.
"This can be caused by an uncompleted upgrade, unofficial software
packages or by running a development version."
Thanks for any help the Ubuntu team can provide,
James McLaughlin.
