Package: release-notes
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

In "4.4.3. Make sure you have sufficient space for the upgrade" the first
code bloc shows using apt with Trivial-Only option to show how much space
is needed for the operation; but buster apt command does not show this string.
Using apt-get here would be correct.

Hi

Federico, thanks for confirming.

Braiam, we can't reproduce the issue you reported and you didn't reply
to any of our messages. Hence, I'm closing this bug as there is nothing
I see we can do at this moment.

Paul
