I have had the same update-manager command line error when trying to upgrade to Feisty :
warning: could not initiate dbus could not send the dbus Inhibit signal: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. I had try before to run update-manager from the GUI and it failed saying that i had to check my Internet connection, while Firefox was browsing fine the Web at the same time ! I have just solved it by stopping Firestarter as suggested for bug <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update- manager/+bug/109683">#109683</a>. A duplicate ? Aaargh ! Is a firewall not intended to stop intrusions <b>from outside</b> ? Anyway my update-manager is now proceeding in downloading 1113 files. Crackers are, please, nicely invited to go and see elsewhere while my Firestarter is turned off.
