Bug Description

Binary package hint: coreutils

I was using the Update Manager of 5.10 to upgrade my system to 6.06. It downloaded all the packages and was going through the routine of installing them when the upgrade stopped and reported "Could not install'/var/cache/apt/archives/coreutils_5.93-5ubuntu4_i386.deb' The upgrade aborts now. Please report this bug. subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 2."

The process then procedded to back out the upgrade and return my system to 5.10.
