'Could not download the upgrades' Fix

I got the message trying to update from Ubuntu 9.04 to Ubuntu 9.10.

The fix is to download the install CD from Ubuntu 9.10 Download.  Install the ISO to a CD.

From the System -> Administration -> Software Sources select the go to the Third-Party Software tab and select the Add CD-ROM button.

With the CD now in the selection list the missing packages will be found.

These are the packages I was missing:
