Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
I am going to guess this has something to do with my java6 docs package. Before my attempt to upgrade to 8.04 I had already been always getting errors when doing updates via adept. Always at the very end there would be an error about a package failing to update or something. I have a feeling it was the java6 docs package.
During the 8.04 upgrade there was a point it got to where it paused and gave me an error about java6/doc package, and mentioned me maybe needing to manually install/download the package.
Either way not a big deal for me, as I will just burn an 8.04 ISO and wipe the computer and do a full install.
But in case this helps, I am logging this as an issue.

Thanks for your bugreport.
This is a bug in the 'sun-java6-doc' package. It will not affect the stability of your system, but it should be fixed still:
Setting up sun-java6-doc (6-06-0ubuntu1) ...
This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the
JDK documentation. You will need to go download one of the
archives:
jdk-6-doc.zip jdk-6-doc-ja.zip
(choose the non-update version if this is the first installation).
Please visit
http:// java.sun. com/javase/ downloads/
now and download. The file should be owned by root.root and be copied
to /tmp.

So that it at least downlaods automatically and/or uses debconf.
