Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

During the process of running the Upgrade Tool (upgrading from Edgy to
Feisty), it crashed with an OOM error.  Other applications were running
at a time, but at the point of running out of memory, python was using
about 2GB of RAM, 548MB of which was resident, which surely seems
excessive.  The tool had most recently asked me to approve a list of
redundant packages to be removed.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/kde-root/adept_updaterE14Crc.tmp-extract/dist-upgrade.py", line 
56, in ?
