You might want to try this:

sudo sed -i 's/feisty/gutsy/' /etc/apt/sources.list

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I had this as well, recently. I just changed to the gutsy repositories without doing a dist upgrade. That worked fine, I haven't experienced any packages not working.

You may want to take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades for another way to go about it.

Thanks for such quick responses, i tried Pumalite's suggestion and it worked great! I even got to go from 7.10 to 8.04 last night! Tonight, i plan on going all the way to 8.10!


Thanks again!
