[mythtv-users] Starting the upgrade, but.....

OK, so I started the upgrade on my Mythbuntu box from 9.04 to 9.10 by 
clicking on the "Upgrade" button in the Update Manager (AFTER making a 
backup of my database, of course   ;-) ).  As it starts the upgrade, I 
end up with 2 dialog boxes: the first says the following:

Not all updates can be installed
Run a partial upgrade to install as many updates as possible
This can be caused by:
   A previous upgrade which didn't complete
   Problems with some of the installed software
   Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
   Normal changes off a pre-release version of Ubuntu

The second dialog is underneath and says:
Support for some applications ended
Canonical Ltd no longer provides support or the following software 
packages.  You can still get support from the community.  If you have 
not enabled community maintained sotware (universe), these packages will 
be suggested for removal at the end of the upgrade.

Then the list is as follows:
ac
binutils-static
bluez-gnome
cpp-4.3
g++4.3
gcc-4.3
gcc-4.3-base
gnome-mount
human-icon-theme
klogd
libglew1.5
libmysqlclient1.5off
libpokit-gnome0
libsmbios2
libstdc++6-4.3-dev
nvidia-180-modaliases
policykit-gnome
python-launchpad-bugs
qt4-qtconfig
rss-glx
sysklogd
ubuntu-gdm-themes

So, after all that, is it OK to click for a Partial Upgrade?  Will that 
update everything properly, including the MythTV packages so I can get 0.22?

Thanks,
Harry
