Bug Description

Binary package hint: python-apt

TEST CASE:
1. use a maverick server install
2. run do-release-upgrade -d
3. verify that there are (fast scrolling) deprecation warnings
4. cancel the upgrade
5. install the updated update-manager from maverick-proposed
6. repeat step 2
7. verify that the warnings are gone now

Lots of warnings like:

/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/apt/progress/old.py:134: DeprecationWarning: apt.progress.FetchProgress is deprecated.

I didn't catch all of them before the screen changed, so some may have referred to other files.

Accepted update-manager into maverick-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

I just wanted to document the full errors.

I enabled proposed and this is fixed.
