Bug Description

Binary package hint: update-manager

While upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10, the upgrader shows that 10.10 is available and display a button labelled 'Upgrade'.
With the keyboard, you can focus the button by hitting tab but once highlighted, 'Enter' close update-manager where it should activate the button.

This makes systems without a mouse difficult to upgrade with update-manager.
