I'm having the same problem with up2date.  When I tried updating
packages after selecting them, I can't click the forward button
because it is greyed out.  Also all the packages show 0 kb and
packages that are already updated still show up in the list.  I tried
ignoring some packages to see if it would allow me to use the forward
button but it still doesn't work.  Glad I'm not one of those squimsh
people, I don't mind jumping into the command line to get things done.
 I just hope this is fixed :)
