8.04 to 10.04 dist upgrade

[Martin Visser]

The reason why you are being offered the upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04
automagically is that both are LTS (Long Term Support) versions. The direct
upgrade was fully planned (without intermediate upgrades) in the design of
10.04

See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades for more details.
