hoary->breezy
-------------
- stop gnome-volume-manager before the hoary->breezy upgrade
(it will crash otherwise)
- send a "\n" on the libc6 question on hoary->breezy
general
-------
- CDROM upgrades !!!
- display a message that all applications should be closed for the
dist-upgrade (and that strange things like a crashing panel can
happen)
- whitelist removal (pattern? e.g. c102 -> c2a etc)?
- logging for the dpkg install run
- check authentication and don't upgrade anything that is not
authenticated (maybe just comment unauthenticated stuff out?)
Robustness:
-----------
- automatically comment out entires in the sources.list that fail to
fetch.
Trouble: apt doesn't provide a method to map from a line in th
sources.list to the indexFile and python-apt dosn't proivde a way to
get all the metaIndexes in sources.list, nor a way to get the
pkgIndexFiles from the metaIndexes (metaIndex is not available in
python-apt at all)
What we could do is to write DistUpgradeCache.update(), check the
DescURI for each failed item and guess from it what sources.list
line failed (e.g. uri.endswith("Sources{.bz2|.gz") -> deb-src, get
base-uri, find 'dists' in uri etc)
