Update from Xubuntu 7.10 to Ubuntu 8.04 failed

[LZoli]

Binary package hint: update-manager

I used the package manager to upgrade my system from 7.10 to 8.04. The default language of my system was set to Hungarian.
It was (is) running on a IBM/Lenovo T43 laptop.

I experienced the following:
1. the downloads of the software packages were sometimes very slow (the remaining time estimation varied between 35 hours to 20 minutes)
2. I got the error message that the "updated packages cannot be installed"
3. The error message what I got finally : "A frissítés most félbeszakad. Előfordulhat, hogy a rendszer használhatatlan állapotban van. Egy helyreállítás kerül futtatásra (dpkg --configure -a)."

As it was requested I attached the content of the /var/log/dist-upgrade directory.

Thanks for the logs. There's no evidence of what has been wrong. Is it still an issue ?

Hello,

I managed to upgrade to 8.04.
I think you can close the case.

Cheers,
Zoltan
