Maybe i have a clue, its only a guess :
- update-manager checks if update are needed
- it starts downloading silently (as required in my conf) and does not lock the dpkg_stuff. As i have little bandwidth, it may take some time
- meanwhile i uninstall some packages included in the upgrade (here apache)
- when the upgrade starts, the package list is wrong (but still consistent i hope)

I think there is something wrong about *when* upgrade manager checks the date of the last `apt-get update`, and *when* it starts upgrades.

my 2 cents.
