** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: apt , ubiquity
  
  see PNG file that i attach
  
  when installing when it gets to configuring apt (82%), If it cant get an
  list of updates when installing with No Internet, it removes All all
  download sources/repositories and update repositories/sources it should
  Never turn off the updates
  
  its done this in Ubuntu and Kbuntu 7.10
  
  also the Network manager should always Look for an IP address from DHCP
  as i have to click offline and back to On-line to get it from 0.0.0.0 IP
  address some times when in side VMware
  
  i have tested inside an VMware box with network disconnected this bug
  has only happened in 7.10 not 7.04 and lower
  
  -----------------------------------------------------------------
  i have now also tested this problem on an Live PC with the network cable 
Unplugged and it does the same thing
  
  i have marked this as an security vulnerability but its more it Can make an 
security vulnerability
  if the user does not know how to turn them back on thay never get updates 
(check for update says no new updates)
  -----------------------------------------------------------------
  for users who do not know how to fix this until thay bring out ubuntu 7.10 1
  goto System > Admin > software sources
  
  1 Tick all box's apart form source code (do not think norm users need that)
  2 Pick your Download From server location (as it picks main server by default 
click on search if you cant see one for you)
  3 Goto updates and tick the first 2 options
  4 [Optional] change the auto up date check to [Download all updates in 
background] (assuming you do not have an hard disk that is very small its an 
better option so your ready to install when you are ready just means you do not 
need to have to wait for them to download)
  do not recommend auto install with out confirmation as it may not wait for 
all updates to be install when shutting down the PC, as it make brake your box
+ 
+ Kbuntu users 
+ Cick on the K bottem left > System (Not system setting) > Adept Package 
Manager > Adept > Manage Repositories
+ do the same as above for steps 2 to 4
+ 5 do not Close any error boxs that may that are related to Adept Package 
Manager untill All updates are done (unless the progress bar is no longer 
moveing)
