Upgrade from Dapper to Edgy aborts

[David J. Greenberger]

Binary package hint: update-manager

I attempted to upgrade from Dapper to Edgy using the recommended (gksu "update-manager -c") method.

After a while, I got this error message:

===
Could not intall '/var/cache/apt/archives/courier-authdaemon_0.58-4ubuntu1_i386.deb'

The upgrade aborts now. Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport.

subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
===

The upgrade kept running. And several hours later, I got this one:

===
Could not install the upgrades

The upgrade aborts now. Your system could be in an unusable state. A recovery was run (dpkg --configure -a).

Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport.

installArchives() failed
===

This time, the upgrade really stopped.

I have no plans to try rebooting until I've convinced myself that this system will still boot.

Confirming, as this bug have all normally requested log files.

dapper2edgy no longer supported. Closing as wontfix. Please open a new report if you are still affected by something similar in a later release.
