这个 dist-upgrade 正常吗？看起来软件包太多了，有些软件包我猜根本不应该在那里。

答案1
我认为问题不一定在于更新的大小，而是软件包的数量。如果您经常更新内核以保持当前版本，那么不应该出现这么长的列表。具体来说：
Linux-image-3.0.0-13-通用 Linux-image-3.0.0-13-通用-pae Linux 映像-3.0.0-14-通用 Linux 映像-3.0.0-14-通用-pae Linux-image-3.0.0-15-通用 Linux-image-3.0.0-15-通用-pae Linux 映像 3.0.0-16-通用 Linux 映像 3.0.0-16-通用-pae linux-image-generic linux-image-generic-pae
似乎您错过了一些内核更新，或者您最近从非当前的实时媒体进行了安装。
编辑：
哎呀。这些都在已删除的软件包列表中。看起来您正尝试 dist-upgrade 到 12.04，但该版本尚未“稳定”。看起来：
a)我犯了一个错误。b
)您的问题立即变成了 12.04 错误报告，并且偏离了主题。
正如评论中提到的问题，它应该比正常的大。但我看的是包装，而不是尺寸。
