I don't think that you lost your database entirely. Without knowing what
you did exactly, I think this happened:

  postgresql-8.2 is not supported in Ubuntu 8.04 any more, so update-
manager suggested to remove the old postgresql-8.2 since it is in
universe now. I take it you accepted this?

Without postgresql-8.2 installed, you cannot access/update your database
any more.

You should install postgresql-8.2 again and  verify that your 8.2 DB is
present in "pg_lsclusters". Is it?

** Changed in: postgresql (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

** Changed in: postgresql-8.3 (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete

Upgrade 7.10 to 8.04 should preserve previous DB data
