[Bug 873468] Re: Update to latest Release failed for overloaded mirrors with no descriptive error message

[Michael Hastrup Bendsen]

Don't know if all these bug-reports, has to do with Precise update-manager hangs when trying to check for update or even trying installing updates. Nothing happens at all. it just hangs and looks like it's trying to do what job ever executed in update-manager.
 be back with logs if i can get it to crash, cause even that, i can make it do, using daily-live builds, 24th November. x86_64 12.04
