Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
When do-release-upgrade program almost finishes upgrading Ubuntu system it asks user if he wants to reboot his computer. The problem is that if user enters something other than y or n computer will be rebooted. Moreover if user's default language is not English he doesn't know whether he should press y or n or their localized equivalents. Therefore it's wrong to assume that if user presses some wrong button that his answer is yes. Possible fixes: either set default answer to no or keep asking user until he presses right button.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It would have been helpful to know which release of Ubuntu you were upgrading from and to but I was able to create this when upgrading from Intrepid to Jaunty and I'm working on a fix.
