** Description changed:

  I was upgrading Backtrack 5 Kubuntu 10.04 (retail) to the newer stable version 10.10 through the Update Manager , at the end, a fatal error came up on 99% of the "Installing the upgrades" step.
  Message was:
  
  COULD NOT INSTALL THE UPGRADES
  The upgrade has aborted. Your system could be in an unusable state. A recovery will run now (dpkg --configure -a). Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bug report. E:Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
  
  Now I am filling the report.
- Hope da shit will still work... :/

  root at bt:~# lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 10.10
  Release:        10.10
  
  2)
  root at bt:~# apt-cache policy pkgname
  N: Unable to locate package pkgname
  
  3)
  I was expecting for the Upgrade to take place (10.04 > 10.10).
  
  4)
  The abortion of the upgrade message.
  Now I am going to press "close" button on the message and hopefully it will be able to repair itself.
