Title:
  Upgrade via Alternate CD always downloads updates

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

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: debian-installer

  attempting to upgrade an existing Ubuntu 9.04 (i386) system, running
  two SATA in RAID-1 software mirror.  Downloaded the 9.10 RC Alternate
  CD and initiated the upgrade via the CD.  Initially answered 'Yes' to
  download updates since I figured there wouldn't be any, but then
  cancelled when I saw it was downloading seemingly ALL the files.
  Restarted the upgrade and selected 'No' to download more updates.  But
  the upgrade appears to have downloaded all the files anyway, taking
  considerably longer.

  P.S. Now the upgrade appears to have hung-up, after finally downloaded
  everything.  Not sure if this is part of the same problem; it could
  be!  Maybe the upgrade utility is not clear about where the new files
  are supposed to be coming from?
