description |
In my case I ran out of diskspace in /usr which required a temporary 4 GB of more data during upgrade. Things just start to fail, and I can tell you - then you are screwed. I find this unacceptable for a wide-spread official LTS upgrader.

[Impact]
The checkFreeSpace function doesn't ensure that the space needed is a positive number thereby causing a situation where a partition, like /usr, doesn't have enough free space which then results in a failure during upgrade.
[Test Case]
It's not clear to me how to recreate this scenario, however I believe this falls into the "obviously safe" patch category. The specific change to checkFreeSpace, which is described as "this checks if we have enough free space", from DistUpgradeCache.py follows:
1200 # we are ensuring we have more than enough free space not less
1201 if size < 0:
1202 continue
This stops the needed space from being a negative number.
[Regression Potential]
Other than a typo in the change there won't be any.
