Thanks schroeder!!
Changing the line you pointed out to just return True made my
install/upgrade to continue.
The update-manager downloads the upgrade scripts and puts them in /tmp.
What I did was to go into the directory /tmp/tmpwArERK/ (i assume the
exact name will differ from machine to machine...) and change the line
below in 'DistUpgradeControler.py':
Before change:
# ask the user if he wants to do the changes
res = self._view.confirmChanges(_("Do you want to start the upgrade?"),
changes,
self.cache.requiredDownload)
return res
After change:
#res = self._view.confirmChanges(_("Do you want to start the upgrade?"),
# changes,
# self.cache.requiredDownload)
return True #res
I then executed just the gutsy upgrade script (running update-manager again
will not work since it downloads the script again):
sudo /usr/bin/python /tmp/tmpwArERK/gutsy --have-prerequists --with-network
