** Description changed: Binary package hint: update-manager Description: Ubuntu 6.06.2 LTS Release: 6.06 update-manager-core_0.56 + + TEST CASE (with powerpc): + 1. use a sparc dapper + 2. run "sudo do-release-upgrade -d" + 3. watch it fail because it can not fetch the required backports + + 4. run "sudo do-release-upgrade -d --proposed" + 5. watch it work What you expected to happen: The update manager would be able to obtain the prerequisites for the system-upgrade and continue to the next part What happened instead: It failed, and produced the following: The system was unable to get the prerequisites for the upgrade. The upgrade will abort now and restore the original system state. Please report this as a bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport.
