Bug Description

Binary package hint: casper

Boot from a live 10.10 CD/USB media. Wait a short while. Update manager pops up offering to upgrade to 11.04. This is prior to actually installing the OS. If you click 'yes' to upgrade it actually starts going through the motions of upgrading the live environment.

Probably best to suppress this upgrade popup until we have an installed OS?

I think we should SRU this, although it'll only be effective with new live CD builds; I can certainly do custom ones for prior releases although the only one that will definitely be released as a point release is Lucid. Testing will be a pain on Lucid and Natty as there won't naturally be any releases to upgrade to; for those releases, it might be simplest to test for regressions (e.g. the system boots without errors, etc.).

This bug affects Ubuntu 10.10, Maverick Meerkat. Maverick has reached end-of-life and is no longer supported, so I am closing the bugtask for Maverick. Please upgrade to a newer version of Ubuntu.
