Maybe just with the update, maybe just in some cases, idk. You could have DL'ed 8.10 and install it instead of 8.04 directly to skip the update step. Since
you solved it already I personally think it's not worth the time looking into it, but you could ask in the official Ubuntu forums if it still worries you.

SYNOPSIS
install-menu [-vh] [--remove] <menu-method>

-h,--help
