I've been getting that partial upgrade notice on my laptop too for some 
time now. I don't use it much so I haven't bothered to look into it yet. 
I don't remember doing anything language support related when I got it 
and I still have OpenOffice.org. The updates that I can't install now 
include OpenOffice.org and Linux. When I click the button to do the 
suggested partial upgrade it says it can't upgrade from deltah to hardy. 
My sources.list file doesn't contain any references to Ubuntu (I haven't 
touched it since installation). My other machines don't have the problem.

I'll do some more investigating during the weekend.
