** Description changed: - Binary package hint: update-manager + Because of the overloaded servers update-manager gives a unclear error + message that ubuntu-minimal is missing and aborts (doing a proper + cleanup and no harm in any way to the system). The error message is + problematic because the real problem is that the server in question is + so loaded that it does not return useful data (a comination of 111 + connection refused, 403, 404 was observed). + + If you experience the problem, please run "update-manager --proposed (or + do-release-upgrade --proposed) to get better error checking and let us + know here in the bugreport if it helps getting at least a better error + message (we can not do a lot to make the servers less loaded at this + point). + + TEST CASE (for SRU verification): + 1. switcht to es.archive.ubuntu.com + 2. run the upgrade (update-manager or do-release-upgrade) + 3. watch it fail with a unclear error message about "ubuntu-minimal missing" + 4. run "update-manager --proposed" (or do-release-upgrade --proposed) + 5. watch it give a better error message about overloaded servers Upgrade from UNR 9.04 to 9.10 fails after having retreived all the necessary files with the following error: ---- Invalid package information After your package information was updated the essential package 'ubuntu-minimal' can not be found anymore.
