Bug Description
I updated an old virtual private server from 11.04 today. The upgrade to 11.10 worked fine, but the further upgrade to 12.04 failed.
Reporting this bug because the upgrade message asked me to. Here's the full output from the bug to the end. /var/log/

first, this is NOT a bug, and should *NOT* be reported. In that case,
please add lenny sources to your /etc/apt/
apt-get install -t lenny linux-image-2.6
Then reboot into this new kernel, and proceed with your upgrade

It appears that upgrading libc6 to 2.15 requires that I upgrade my kernel to 2.6.24 or later. Will check that out.
