Comment 7 for bug 134858

Hi!

I tried starting update-manager from a terminal. This is what it printed:

martin@garrett:~$ sudo strace -f -o update-manager-trace.txt update-manager
warning: could not initiate dbus
current dist not found in meta-release file
could not send the dbus Inhibit signal: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

As it went through the update without problems this time, I won't attach the strace (97MB uncompressed!).
devpts is mounted ("(evpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)").
My apt version is:

apt 0.7.6ubuntu7 for amd64 compiled on Aug 16 2007 18:44:41
