Using the Xubuntu alternate CD-Rom, I got this error on a machine
with no X server on it:

--------------------------------------------------
A fatal error occured
Please report this as a bug and include the files /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log and /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log in your report. The upgrade aborts now.
Your original sources.list was saved in /etc/apt/sources.list.distUpgrade.

--------------------------------------------------

I have the relevant files set aside.

In order to file a bug, I have to know the "project" and the
"package". I have no idea what those are, so searching in the popup
box on launchpad is useless. What are they? How am I supposed to find
out what they are?
