Small bug found.

After seeing a request to test this app on the Kubuntu RSS feed i
figured I'd take the plunge and give Fiesty a try on one of my machines.

First impressions are that the updater is working well, it's still has a
couple of hours of downloading to do but I do like the look. When first
starting there are a series of progress bars that appear without any
description which IMHO should at least say what they are doing in plain
English so as not to scare people.

However, my /etc/apt/sources.list file was quite a mess and this caused
the updater to choke. I had an entry which could not be resolved and
when it timed out I was given an error message and the updater would not
continue. This was an entry I had set up myself so I knew it was safe to
comment it out and try again. I don't think this is quite how the
updater should work though as people could have all sorts of cruft in
their source.list.

I hope that helps and I'll comment on the results once the updater has
done it's thing.
