I have 9.04 and started the upgrade to 9.10 and the process displayed a window listing all of the packages that were going to be removed and installed. There were a lot of packages being removed and some concerned me and I wanted to copy the list so I could do research. Unfortunately I could not copy the text from the list so I canceled the install, but unless I write down all of the packages I need to research, I cannot determine my options.

There must be a better place to post this but it was not obvious as it is not really a bug.

Thanks,

These are probably packages that can not be used in 9.10. After the upgrade they can be found in the package manager under status. It is unlikely that you will need to reinstall any of them. In fact I will list them for complete removal when I have the new upgrade running to suit me.
