Yes this upgrade was from UTS. The proxying, if thats the problem, has made an upgrade take much longer han it should. I have done probably a dozen pull downs. It's probably caused a lot of bandwidth to be wasted with re-downloading and continual apt-get cleans and reties. I'll find out who to chat to. Thanks.
