Bug Description
Binary package hint: apt
Dist-upgrading ubuntu is annoying for the reason that the process of unfolding-
If you go away from the pc, according to Murphy's law in that same moment the process will stop waiting for your input.
I myself can't stay a lot of time near a pc waiting for the upgrade to finish. When I upgraded from hoary, from dapper y from edgy I lasted some day in order to end the process. Every time I came back to the pc thinking it had finished, I found a question waiting for my input, and the dist-upgrade process very far from finishing.
A way should be found in order to present all question to the user at the beginning of the dist-upgrade, in the same way it's done when installing ubuntu.
