I have also tried to attach /var/log/dist-upgrade/term.log (the last file in that directory) but it Launchpad said, "Cannot upload empty file". I've looked at it again, and Nautilus does show the file size as 0 bytes, so it probably is empty.
The only other thing I can add is that if I try to launch the upgrade process using $ gksu "update-manager -c" (as per http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=286599 ) , I get "warning: could not initiate dbus" just like in Bug #153902 but not the other messages shown further down in the terminal window in that bug report. -- Upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy Fails with Error Message https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154728 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
