[Bug 613174] Re: do-release-upgrade seems not to check if there is enough HD space for the upgrade

[guntbert]

it is a bit difficult to create a test environment "on the fly" :-)
I was hoping that someone would look into update-manager if there is a space check at all

Title:
  do-release-upgrade seems not to check if there is enough HD space for
  the upgrade

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager-core

  on upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 on a small system (8 GB HD, ~1GB free)
  the remaining space on the HD dropped to 48MB. Downloads occur before
  deletes :-)). I would have expected a warning before the downloads
  begin.
