Bug Description

Binary package hint: update-manager

I upgraded from Karmic 9.10 to Lucid 10.04 today viacommand line "update-manager -d". When the upgrade completed, and I rebooted, I launched Update Manager. I was presented with a dialog that said I could perform a partial upgrade with a list of reasons why. I slected Partial Upgrade. I then received an error message "Cannot upgrade. An upgrade from lucid to karmic is not supported by this tool." I was surprised at this error, as there was not an option to upgra\de from Lucif to Karmic. One concern I have is that I will be unable to obtain updates to Lucid through this avenue.
1. lsb_release -rd
