@ Robbie Williamson,

I believe, with a fair amount of certainty, that the option to "update this installer" was also removed from ubiquity in 10.10. That was a nice feature in 10.04, I don't recall if it was present in 9.10 or not.

The 10.10 installer does include the option to download updates during installation but that's quite a different thing.

I'd also recommend looking at the duplicates and comparing assignments, importance, etc. Unless Colin Watson has resigned he is the one to speak to. I tried at the ubuntu-installer team as Lance (my qa-testing moniker), and I even tried at Ayatana as Erick Brunzell to no avail!

So far all of my efforts may just as well have been sent to Santa at the North Pole :^/

This bug, combined with ongoing Wubi problems following initial updates as described here:

And the recent failings at the Ubuntu forums to even allow posting will IMHO very soon result in rumors of Ubuntu's demise :^(
