Thanks for your input, however the upgrade that I am trying to do is
interrupted by this message, the upgrade stops and does not continue, I
rerun the upgrade only to get this message popping up again...again...again
etc.

Regards Alan

It doesn't look like an error message to me. More like an informative
message. They are simply telling you that they addressed this issue:

http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2012-5519

Also how to work with the new system.
